NLIST

View/search objects and object properties.

Syntax

NLIST [class_type [property_search_option] [object_name] [/basic_option] [display_option]] | [/? | /VER]

Description

Use NLIST at a workstation to:

view information about objects such as users, groups, volumes, servers, and so forth
search on objects and object properties

Options

class_type

Specify an object type, such as USER, SERVER, PRINTER, GROUP, VOLUME, and so forth. See nlist(1nuc) for details.

For bindery servers (NetWare 3), replace class_type with USER, SERVER, QUEUE, GROUP, or VOLUME. These are the only objects available for NetWare 3.

property_search_option

Specify a search option. For online help on these options, type NLIST /? R.

object_name

Specify the name of the object you want information about.

/basic_option

Specify an option from the following:

A: View users who are logged in.
B[=server]: View information stored in the bindery of the specified server (bindery servers only).
C: Scroll continuously through information.
CO[=context]: Set the context to be searched (NDS servers only).
D: View all object properties.
N: View object names.
S: Search all levels of the database, beginning at the current context.
SHOW [property]: View a specific property of an object.
TREE: View all tree names visible from this login.

display_option

Select how data is displayed. For online help, type NLIST /? D.

/?

View online help. (Other parameters are ignored.)

/VER

View the version number of the utility and the files it uses to execute. (Other parameters are ignored.)

Usage

Searching on objects and properties allows you to view specific groups of objects.

For example, you can view all users whose passwords will expire on a certain date. Or you can view all groups that have a particular user as a member.

You can use property groups with only a bindery connection or with bindery services.

USER, SERVER, QUEUE, GROUP, and VOLUME are the only objects you can search on in a bindery context.

The following list shows syntax for frequently use NLIST operations. To list any information use:

NLIST [class type] [=object name] [/option ... ]

To list user information use:

NLIST user=[username] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

For bindery servers, use property_group instead of property.

To list server information use:

NLIST server=[server] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

For bindery servers, use property_group instead of property.

To list group information use:

NLIST group=[group] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

For bindery servers, use property_group instead of property.

To list printer information use:

NLIST printer=[printer] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

For bindery servers, use property_group instead of property.

To list print queue information use:

NLIST queue=[queue] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

To list volume information use:

NLIST volume=[volume] [WHERE [property] [operator] [value]]
[SHOW [property]] [/option ... ]

To list object information use:

NLIST [class type] [=object name] [[WHERE name [operator]
[value1] | WHERE object] [operator] [value2]] [/option ... ]

To List bindery object information use:

NLIST /OT [=value] [WHERE name [operator] [value1] |
WHERE object] [operator] [value2]] [/option ... ]
