print default settings for the NIS server plugin

## NAME

nisserver-plugin-defs - print default settings for the NIS server plugin

## SYNOPSIS

nisserver-plugin-defs \[-d *domain* \] \[-m *map* \] \[-s *suffix* \]

## DESCRIPTION

The *nisserver-plugin-defs* command produces example configuration entries containing the default settings which the NIS server plugin will use for all maps for which it has built-in defaults, or if a particular map name is specified, for one map.

## ARGUMENTS

- \-d DOMAIN

  By default, *nisserver-plugin-defs* uses a placeholder for the NIS domain name when it prints example configuration entries.  This option allows a particular domain name to be specified.

- \-m MAP

  By default, *nisserver-plugin-defs* prints example configuration entries for all of the maps for which it has built-in defaults.  This option can be used to examine the defaults associated with a particular map name.

- \-s SUFFIX

  By default, *nisserver-plugin-defs* uses a placeholder for the base DN under which it expects to find entries which are relevant for the map.  This option allows a particular search base to be specified.
