NAME
gspl-hostedit - edit GNUspool host table
gspl-xhostedit - edit GNUspool host table
SYNOPSIS
gspl-hostedit [ -o file ] [ -s arg ] [ -I ] [ file ]
gspl-xhostedit [ -o file ] [ -s arg ] [ -I ] [ file ]
DESCRIPTION
gspl-hostedit is a simple curses-based program to edit host tables for gnuspool.hosts, the host table for
GNUspool.
gspl-xhostedit is a similar program using GTK+
They know about local addresses (selecting the correct IP address for a machine with different IPs on
different networks), Windows clients, DHCP, trusted hosts, manual connections, probes and timeouts.
Input is taken from standard input unless a file name is given, and output is to standard output unless
the -o option is given.
Normally they would be run as follows:
gspl-hostedit -I /usr/local/etc/gnuspool.hosts
You will usually have to stop and restart GNUspool after you have done this so that all parts of the
system "know" about the new hosts, however this may not be necessary in all cases, you may only have to
""kill -1"" the process id of the xtnetserv process.
Options are identical in each case (except gspl-xhostedit also takes options parsed by GTK+).
OPTIONS
-o file Output to the named file rather than Standard Output
-s char Where char is "h" or "i", sort display by host name or by IP address.
-I Edit in place; a file argument must be given.
COMMANDS
The following command keys are used from within the screen displayed by gspl-hostedit. As with other
