NAME
     inetconv - convert inetd.conf entries into smf service mani-
     fests, import them into smf repository

SYNOPSIS
     inetconv -?


     inetconv [-f] [-n] [-i srcfile] [-o destdir]


     inetconv -e [-n] [-i srcfile]


DESCRIPTION
     The inetconv utility converts a file containing  records  of
     inetd.conf(4) into smf(5) service manifests, and then import
     those manifests into the smf repository. Once the inetd.conf
     file  has  been converted, the only way to change aspects of
     an inet service is to use the inetadm(1M) utility.


     There is a one-to-one correspondence between a service  line
     in  the  input  file and the manifest generated. By default,
     the manifests are named using the following template:

       -.xml



     The  token is replaced by the  service's  name  and
     the    token by the service's protocol. Any slash (/)
     characters that exist in the source  line  for  the  service
     name or protocol are replaced with underscores (_).


     The service line is recorded as a property of the  converted
     service.


     During the conversion process, if a service line is found to
     be malformed or to be for an internal inetd service, no man-
     ifest is generated and that service line is skipped.


     The input file is left untouched by the conversion process.

OPTIONS
     The following options are supported:

     -?            Display a usage message.

     -e            Enable smf services which are  listed  in  the
                   input file.


     -f            If a service manifest of the same name as  the
                   one  to  be generated is found in the destina-
                   tion directory, inetconv will  overwrite  that
                   manifest  if  this option is specified. Other-
                   wise, an error message is  generated  and  the
                   conversion of that service is not performed.


     -i srcfile    Permits  the  specification  of  an  alternate
                   input  file  srcfile.  If  this  option is not
                   specified, then the inetd.conf(4) file is used
                   as input.


     -n            Turns off the  auto-import  of  the  manifests
                   generated   during   the  conversion  process.
                   Later, if you want to import a generated mani-
                   fest into the smf(5) repository, you can do so
                   through the use of the svccfg(1M) utility.

                   If the -e option is specified, the  -n  option
                   only  displays  the smf services that would be
                   enabled.


     -o            Permits the specification of an alternate des-
                   tination  directory  destdir for the generated
                   manifests. If this option  is  not  specified,
                   then    the    manifests    are    placed   in
                   /lib/svc/manifest/network/rpc, if the  service
                   is a RPC service, or /lib/svc/manifest/network
                   otherwise.


EXAMPLES
     Example 1 Generating smf Manifests from inetd.conf


     The  following  command  generates  smf(5)  manifests   from
     inetd.conf(4)  and  places them in /var/tmp, overwriting any
     preexisting manifests of the same  name,  and  then  imports
     them into the smf repository.


       # inetconv -f -o /var/tmp
       100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
       Importing 100232_10-rpc_udp.xml ...Done
       telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml

System Administration Commands                       inetconv(1M)



       Importing telnet-tcp6.xml ...Done


     Example 2 Generating Manifests from an Alternate Input File


     The following command specifies a different input  file  and
     does  not  load the resulting manifests into the smf reposi-
     tory.


       # inetconv -n -i /export/test/inet.svcs -o /var/tmp
       100232/10 -> /var/tmp/100232_10-rpc_udp.xml
       telnet -> /var/tmp/telnet-tcp6.xml


EXIT STATUS
     The following exit values are returned:

     0    Operation completed successfully (no errors).


     1    Invalid options specified.


     2    One or more service lines are malformed,  and  thus  no
          manifest(s) were generated for them.


     3    An error occurred importing one or  more  of  the  gen-
          erated manifests.


     4    A system error occurred.


FILES
     /lib/svc/manifest/network/{rpc}/-.xml

         Default output manifest file name.
