NMSERVER(8)

NAME
nmserver - Mach network server

SYNOPSIS
nmserver [ -c ] [ -t ] [ -p print_level ]

DESCRIPTION
The network server is the program responsible for forwarding Mach IPC over the network. Currently, it also implements a simple network name service. The network server should be started once and for all at boot time. It is shared by all users of the machine.

OPTIONS
-c enables debugging in the cthreads library. -t enables procedure call tracing, if the executable was compiled with this facility turned on. -p is used to set the level of debugging messages printed on the console. Possible values for print_level are 5, 3, and 0, which correspond to LS_PRINT_NEVER, LS_PRINT_LOG, and LS_PRINT_ALWAYS respectively. The debugging messages become more verbose as the value changes from LS_PRINT_NEVER to LS_PRINT_ALWAYS.
