NAME

remove entry - Removes a name service entry from the name service database

SYNOPSIS

rpccp remove entry  entry-name [-s syntax]

OPTIONS

-sIndicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional). The only value for this option is the dce name syntax, which is the default name syntax. Until an alternative name syntax becomes available, specifying the -s option is unnecessary. 

ARGUMENTS

entry-nameIndicates the name of the target name service entry.  For an entry in the local cell, you can omit the cell name and specify only the cell-relative name. 

DESCRIPTION

The remove entry command removes an entry from the name service database. The name of the entry is required. 

Privilege Required

You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target name service entry).  You also need delete permission to the CDS object entry or to the parent directory. 

NOTE

This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE. 

EXAMPLES

The following commands run RPCCP and remove the entry /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_2 from the local cell of the name service database:

$ rpccp
rpccp> remove entry  /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_2
