NAME
       uname -	(POSIX only)get system name

SYNOPSIS
       #include <sys/utsname.h>

       int uname(struct utsname *name);

DESCRIPTION
       The   information   in	this   specification  applies  only  to	 POSIX
       applications.

       Uname stores information identifying the current	 operating  system  in
       the structure pointed to by name.

       The  structure  utsname	is  defined  in the header <sys/utsname.h> and
       contains the following members:

	      char sysname[32]
	      char nodename[32]
	      char	release[32]
	      char	version[32]
	      char machine[32]

       Sysname is set to the value ``NEXTSTEP''.  Nodename is the hostname set
       by  hostname(1)	or  sethostname(2).   Release and version reflects the
       level  of  the  operating  system.   Machine  identifies	 the  hardware
       architecture.

RETURN VALUE
       If  successful  uname  returns  a  nonnegative  value.	If the request
       failed, -1 is returned.
