14.8.4. net
net <protocol> <function> <misc_options> <target_options>
The
net
utility is similar to the net
utility used for Windows and MS-DOS. The first argument is used to specify the protocol to use when executing a command. The <protocol>
option can be ads
, rap
, or rpc
for specifying the type of server connection. Active Directory uses ads
, Win9x/NT3 uses rap
, and Windows NT4/2000/2003 uses rpc
. If the protocol is omitted, net
automatically tries to determine it.
