This program compares the information in a remote NCP database to the local NCP database It also produces a discrepancy report which details any discrepancies between the local database and the remote database. The following discrepancies are reported : o An address exists in the remote NCP database but not in the local data base. o An address exists in the local data base but not in the remote NCP database. o An address exists in both databases, but the nodenames do not match. o A node exists in both databases, but the addresses do not match. The program also produces a command procedure that can be used to add names that exist in the remote database but do not exist in the local NCP database. The command procedure is not automatically executed since this may or may not be desirable. To manually execute this procedure type "$ @UPDATE_NCP" after the program terminates. Usage : $ FOR COMPARE_NCP $ LINK COMPARE_NCP $ @COMPARE_NCP [remote-nodename] Written by : Bob Marshall Lockheed Missiles & Space Company marshall@nebula.ssd.lmsc.lockheed.com 4 February 1992
