set localhost


Syntax

set localhost host-name

Command Qualifiers Defaults
None. None.

Parameters

host-name

The local host name as far as address transformations are concerned; e.g., the name of the PMDF system itself.

Description

If it is made known to the pmdf test -x400 utility, the utility will use the local host name for certain address transformation purposes, such as "fixing up" bare usernames presented as putative RFC 822 addresses.


Examples

The following example illustrates how setting localhost can allow pmdf test -x400 to "fix up" bare usernames and thereby allow address transformation. The example assumes a PMDF-X400 configuration where the X.400 name for the PMDF system is /C=US/ADMD=GALACTIMAIL/PRMD=EXAMPLE/.


% pmdf test -x400 -x488
X400> translate 822_to_avpl root
Syntax error. 
X400> set localhost example.com
X400> translate 822_to_avpl root
Result: 
C                    0                                         US 
ADMD                 0                                         GALACTIMAIL 
PRMD                 0                                         EXAMPLE 
S                    0                                         root
