[1mNAME
     [0mypcat - print values in a network information service (NIS)
     data base

[1mSYNOPSIS
     ypcat [0m[ [1m-k [0m] [ [1m-t [0m] [ [1m-d [0m_d_o_m_a_i_n_n_a_m_e ] _m_n_a_m_e
     [1mypcat -x

DESCRIPTION
     [0m_y_p_c_a_t prints out values in a network information service
     (NIS) map specified by _m_n_a_m_e, which may be either a _m_a_p_n_a_m_e
     or a map _n_i_c_k_n_a_m_e.  Since _y_p_c_a_t uses the NIS network ser-
     vices, no NIS server is specified.

     To look at the network-wide password database,
     _p_a_s_s_w_d._b_y_n_a_m_e, (with the nickname _p_a_s_s_w_d).  type in:

	  ypcat passwd

     Refer to ypfiles(5) and ypserv(8) for an overview of the
     network information service.

[1mOPTIONS
     -k   [0mDisplay the keys for those maps in which the values are
	  null or the key is not part of the value.  (None of the
	  maps derived from files that have an ASCII version in
	  /_e_t_c fall into this class.)

     [1m-t   [0mInhibit translation of _m_n_a_m_e to _m_a_p_n_a_m_e. For example,
	  _y_p_c_a_t -_t _p_a_s_s_w_d will fail because there is no map named
	  _p_a_s_s_w_d, whereas _y_p_c_a_t _p_a_s_s_w_d will be translated to
	  _y_p_c_a_t _p_a_s_s_w_d._b_y_n_a_m_e.

     [1m-d   [0mSpecify a domain other that the default domain.  The
	  default domain is returned by _d_o_m_a_i_n_n_a_m_e.

     [1m-x   [0mDisplay the map nickname table. This lists the nick-
	  names (_m_n_a_m_e_s) the command knows of, and indicates the
	  _m_a_p_n_a_m_e associated with each nickname.
