NAME
       nisrm - remove NIS+ objects from the namespace

SYNOPSIS
       nisrm [-if] name...

DESCRIPTION
       The nisrm command removes NIS+ objects named name from the  NIS+ names‐
       pace.

       This command will fail if the NIS+ master server is not running.

       This command will not remove directories. See nisrmdir(1). Nor will  it
       remove non-empty tables. See nistbladm(1).

OPTIONS
       The following options are supported:

       -i    Interactive  mode.	 Like the system  rm(1) command the nisrm com‐
	     mand will ask for confirmation prior to removing  an  object.  If
	     the  name	specified  by  name is a non-fully qualified name this
	     option is forced on. This	prevents  the  removal	of  unexpected
	     objects.

       -f    Force.  The  removal is attempted, and if it fails for permission
	     reasons, a	 nischmod(1) is attempted and the removal retried.  If
	     the command fails, it fails silently.

OPERANDS
       The following operand is supported:

       name    A NIS+ named object.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1 Using the nisrm Command

       Remove the objects  foo, bar, and baz from the namespace:

	 example% nisrm foo bar baz

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
       NIS_PATH	    If	this  variable	is set, and the NIS+ name is not fully
		    qualified, each directory specified will be searched until
		    the object is found. See nisdefaults(1).

EXIT STATUS
       The following exit values are returned:

       0    Successful operation.

       1    Operation failed.

NOTES
       NIS+ might not be supported in future releases of the SolarisTM Operat‐
       ing  Environment.  Tools	 to  aid  the  migration from NIS+ to LDAP are
       available in the Solaris 9 operating environment. For more information,
