INNCONFVAL(1) InterNetNews Documentation INNCONFVAL(1)NAMEinnconfval - Get configuration parameters from inn.conf
SYNOPSISinnconfval [-pstv] [-i file] [parameter ...]
innconfval-C [-i file]
DESCRIPTIONinnconfval normally prints the values of the parameters specified on
the command line. By default, it just prints the parameter values, but
if -p, -s, or -t are given, it instead prints the parameter and value
in the form of a variable assignment in Perl, Bourne shell, or Tcl
respectively. If no parameters are specifically requested, innconfval
prints out all parameter values (this isn't particularly useful unless
one of -p, -s, or -t were specified).
All parameters are taken from inn.conf except for version, which is
always the version string of INN.
If given the -C option, innconfval instead checks inn.conf, reporting
any problems found to standard error. innconfval will exit with status
0 if no problems are found and with status 1 otherwise.
OPTIONS-C Check inn.conf rather than printing out the values of parameters.
-i file
Use file as the source configuration file rather than inn.conf.
file must be a valid inn.conf file and will be parsed the same as
inn.conf would be.
-p Print out parameters as Perl assignment statements. The variable
name will be the same as the inn.conf parameter, and string values
will be enclosed in single quotes with appropriate escaping. Bool‐
ean values will be mapped to "true" or "false", and string parame‐
ters that are set to NULL will be mapped to empty strings.
-s Print out parameters as Bourne shell assignment statements. The
variable name will be the inn.conf parameter name in all capitals,
and all variables will be exported. String values will be enclosed
in single quotes with appropriate escaping, and boolean values will
be mapped to "true" or "false". String parameters that are set to
NULL will be mapped to empty strings.
-t Print out parameters as Tcl assignment statements. The variable
name will be the same as the inn.conf parameter name but with
"inn_" prepended, and string variables will be escaped appropri‐
ately. Boolean values will be mapped to "true" or "false" and
string parameters that are set to NULL will be mapped to empty
strings.
-v Print INN's version. This is equivalent to "innconfval version".
