NAME
       ypcat - print values in a YP data base

SYNOPSIS
       ypcat [ -k ] [ -t ] [ -d domainname ] mname
       ypcat -x

DESCRIPTION
       ypcat  prints out values in a yellow pages (YP) map specified by mname,
       which may be either a mapname or a map nickname.	 Since ypcat uses  the
       YP network services, no YP server is specified.

       To look at the network-wide password database, passwd.byname, (with the
       nickname passwd).  type in:

	      ypcat passwd

       Refer to ypfiles(5) and ypserv(8) for an overview of the yellow pages.

OPTIONS
       -k     Display the keys for those maps in which the values are null  or
	      the  key	is  not	 part of the value.  (None of the maps derived
	      from files that have an ASCII version in	/etc  fall  into  this
	      class.)

       -t     Inhibit  translation of mname to mapname.	 For example, ypcat -t
	      passwd will fail because there is no map named  passwd,  whereas
	      ypcat passwd will be translated to ypcat passwd.byname.

       -d     Specify  a  domain  other	 that the default domain.  The default
	      domain is returned by domainname.

       -x     Display the  map	nickname  table.   This	 lists	the  nicknames
	      (mnames)	the  command  knows  of,  and  indicates  the  mapname
	      associated with each nickname.
