Swearingen >Release: FreeBSD 4.3-STABLE i386 >Organization: none >Environment: n/a ================ >Description: man(1) doesn't say what "system name" (in "-m") should be. All it says is "Specify an alternate set of man pages to search based on the system name given." ================ >How-To-Repeat: n/a ================ >Fix: Beats me. I'd guess that it wants something like "remotehostname", but could that be "somehost.somedomain", and will the same man command options (minus the "-m") be used on the other host? One shouldn't need to guess. If someone clues me in, I'll write a patch; if not I'll later ask on -questions. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-doc" in the body of the message
