- The _n_b_p_d daemon is a host daemon which manages AppleTalk
- Name Binding Protocol (NBP) requests and AppleTalk Zone
- Information Protocol (ZIP) requests. It listens on the
- well-known Names Information Socket for NBP lookup requests
- and on the ZIP socket for ZIP requests. The daemon
- maintains a table of named services registered by host
- processes and reports these services when requested by
- remote users.
-
- The _n_b_p_d daemon creates two files upon its invocation:
- ////uuuussssrrrr////aaaaddddmmmm////aaaapppppppplllleeeettttaaaallllkkkk////nnnnaaaammmmeeeessss____ttttaaaabbbblllleeee, the registered services
- table maintained by the daemon, and
- ////uuuussssrrrr////aaaaddddmmmm////aaaapppppppplllleeeettttaaaallllkkkk////nnnnbbbbpppp____ppppiiiidddd, which contains the process ID of
- the daemon. These two files are removed before the daemon
- starts. They are also removed whenever the daemon is killed
- with a SIGTERM signal (which is sent at system shutdown
- time).
-
- The flags are as follows:
-
- _d_e_f_a_u_l_t_z_o_n_e the first zone name assigned to the internal
- AppleTalk zone. All services that do not
- explicitly set their zone name will be
- assigned to this zone. If the zone name
- that is specified does not occur in the
- existing zone list for the network (as
- published by other routers), the default zone
- will be picked and a message will be logged.
- If no zone name is specified, and there are
- other AppleTalk routers, the default zone name
- will be used. Killing nnnnbbbbppppdddd with a SIGUSR2
- will cause it to dump its table of networks
- and associated zones to
- /usr/adm/appletalk/at_log.
-
- ----DDDD causes _n_b_p_d to run in the foreground, printing
- debugging information.
-
- ----xxxx causes _n_b_p_d to print debugging information in
- hexadecimal.
-
- ----NNNN makes _n_b_p_d not respond to GetNetInfo and
- ZipQuery requests. This flag can be used
- when you have other routers and you do not

- want K-Talk to act as a router at all.
-
- ----nnnn is similar to ----NNNN,,,, except that it will respond
- to GetNetInfo and ZipQuery requests until
- another router is seen on the net. This
- option is used for auto-configuration, where
- it is unsure whether K-Talk is the only
- AppleTalk router on the network.
-
- ----HHHH puts _n_b_p_d into a mode where NBP requests are
- not propagated between network interfaces. If
- you have multiple interfaces, and you do not
- want to have the nets logically connected, you
- should use this option, as well as specifying
- a ----HHHH to _r_t_m_p_d. The K-Talk machine will see
- services on all networks, and clients on all
- networks will see services on the K-Talk
- machine, but clients on a particular net will
- have no access to services on other networks.
