.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility
|
|
creates a
|
|
.Xr db 3
|
|
database for the specified
|
|
.Ar file .
|
|
If no file is specified, then
|
|
.Pa /etc/services
|
|
is used.
|
|
The database is installed into
|
|
.Pa /var/db/services.db .
|
|
The file must be in the correct format (see
|
|
.Xr services 5 ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
|
|
.It Fl b
|
|
Use big-endian byte order for database metadata.
|
|
.It Fl l
|
|
Use little-endian byte order for database metadata.
|
|
.It Fl o Ar database
|
|
Put the output databases in the named file.
|
|
.It Fl q
|
|
Do not warn about duplicate services.
|
|
.It Fl u
|
|
Print the services file to stdout, omitting duplicate entries and comments.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The databases are used by the C library services routines (see
|
|
.Xr getservent 3 ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl b
|
|
and
|
|
.Fl l
|
|
flags are mutually exclusive.
|
|
The default byte ordering is the current host order.

.Bl -tag -width ".Pa /var/db/services.db.tmp" -compact
|
|
.It Pa /var/db/services.db

|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
Because
|
|
.Nm
|
|
guarantees not to install a partial destination file it must
|
|
build a temporary file in the same file system and if successful use
|
|
.Xr rename 2
|
|
to install over the destination file.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If
|
|
.Nm
|
|
fails it will leave the previous version of the destination file intact.
