International Standard Bible Encyclopedia

NET See FISHING; FOWLER.

Easton's 1897 Bible Dictionary

Net in use among the Hebrews for fishing, hunting, and fowling. The fishing-net was probably constructed after the form of that used by the Egyptians (Isa. 19:8). There were three kinds of nets. (1.) The drag-net or hauling-net (Gr. sagene), of great size, and requiring many men to work it. It was usually let down from the fishing-boat, and then drawn to the shore or into the boat, as circumstances might require (Matt. 13:47, 48). (2.) The hand-net or casting-net (Gr. amphiblestron), which was thrown from a rock or a boat at any fish that might be seen (Matt. 4:18; Mark 1:16). It was called by the Latins funda. It was of circular form, "like the top of a tent." (3.) The bag-net (Gr. diktyon), used for enclosing fish in deep water (Luke 5:4-9). The fowling-nets were (1) the trap, consisting of a net spread over a frame, and supported by a stick in such a way that it fell with the slightest touch (Amos 3:5, "gin;" Ps. 69:22; Job 18:9; Eccl. 9:12). (2) The snare, consisting of a cord to catch birds by the leg (Job 18:10; Ps. 18:5; 116:3; 140:5). (3.) The decoy, a cage filled with birds as decoys (Jer. 5:26, 27). Hunting-nets were much in use among the Hebrews.

net NET(8) NET(8) NAME net - Tool for administration of Samba and remote CIFS servers. SYNOPSIS net [-h] [-w workgroup] [-W myworkgroup] [-U user] [-I ip-address] [-p port] [-n myname] [-s conffile] [-S server] [-l] [-P] [-D debuglevel] DESCRIPTION This tool is part of the samba(7) suite. The samba net utility is meant to work just like the net utility avail- able for windows and DOS. The first argument should be used to specify the protocol to use when executing a certain command. ADS is used for ActiveDirectory, RAP is using for old (Win9x/NT3) clients and RPC can be used for NT4 and Windows 2000. If this argument is omitted, net will try to determine it automatically. Not all commands are available on all protocols. OPTIONS -h|--help Print a summary of command line options. -w target-workgroup Sets target workgroup or domain. You have to specify either this option or the IP address or the name of a server. -W workgroup Sets client workgroup or domain -U user User name to use -I ip-address IP address of target server to use. You have to specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target server. -p port Port on the target server to connect to (usually 139 or 445). Defaults to trying 445 first, then 139. -n This option allows you to override the NetBIOS name that Samba uses for itself. This is identical to setting the parameter in the smb.conf file. However, a command line setting will take precedence over settings in smb.conf. -s The file specified contains the configuration details required by the server. The information in this file includes server-spe- cific information such as what printcap file to use, as well as descriptions of all the services that the server is to provide. See smb.conf for more information. The default configuration file name is determined at compile time. -S server Name of target server. You should specify either this option or a target workgroup or a target IP address. -l When listing data, give more information on each item. -P Make queries to the external server using the machine account of the local server. -d|--debug=debuglevel debuglevel is an integer from 0 to 10. The default value if this parameter is not specified is zero. The higher this value, the more detail will be logged to the log files about the activities of the server. At level 0, only crit- ical errors and serious warnings will be logged. Level 1 is a reasonable level for day-to-day running - it generates a small amount of information about operations carried out. Levels above 1 will generate considerable amounts of log data, and should only be used when investigating a problem. Levels above 3 are designed for use only by developers and generate HUGE amounts of log data, most of which is extremely cryptic. Note that specifying this parameter here will override the pa- rameter in the smb.conf file. COMMANDS CHANGESECRETPW This command allows the Samba machine account password to be set from an external application to a machine account password that has already been stored in Active Directory. DO NOT USE this command unless you know exactly what you are doing. The use of this command requires that the force flag (-f) be used also. There will be NO command prompt. Whatever information is piped into stdin, either by typing at the com- mand line or otherwise, will be stored as the literal machine password. Do NOT use this without care and attention as it will overwrite a le- gitimate machine password without warning. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED. TIME The NET TIME command allows you to view the time on a remote server or synchronise the time on the local server with the time on the remote server. TIME Without any options, the NET TIME command displays the time on the re- mote server. TIME SYSTEM Displays the time on the remote server in a format ready for /bin/date TIME SET Tries to set the date and time of the local server to that on the re- mote server using /bin/date. TIME ZONE Displays the timezone in hours from GMT on the remote computer. [RPC|ADS] JOIN [TYPE] [-U username[%password]] [options] Join a domain. If the account already exists on the server, and [TYPE] is MEMBER, the machine will attempt to join automatically. (Assuming that the machine has been created in server manager) Otherwise, a pass- word will be prompted for, and a new account may be created. [TYPE] may be PDC, BDC or MEMBER to specify the type of server joining the domain. [RPC] OLDJOIN [options] Join a domain. Use the OLDJOIN option to join the domain using the old style of domain joining - you need to create a trust account in server manager first. [RPC|ADS] USER [RPC|ADS] USER List all users [RPC|ADS] USER DELETE target Delete specified user [RPC|ADS] USER INFO target List the domain groups of a the specified user. [RPC|ADS] USER RENAME oldname newname Rename specified user. [RPC|ADS] USER ADD name [password] [-F user flags] [-C comment] Add specified user. [RPC|ADS] GROUP [RPC|ADS] GROUP [misc options] [targets] List user groups. [RPC|ADS] GROUP DELETE name [misc. options] Delete specified group. [RPC|ADS] GROUP ADD name [-C comment] Create specified group. [RAP|RPC] SHARE [RAP|RPC] SHARE [misc. options] [targets] Enumerates all exported resources (network shares) on target server. [RAP|RPC] SHARE ADD name=serverpath [-C comment] [-M maxusers] [targets] Adds a share from a server (makes the export active). Maxusers speci- fies the number of users that can be connected to the share simultane- ously. SHARE DELETE sharenam Delete specified share. [RPC|RAP] FILE [RPC|RAP] FILE List all open files on remote server. [RPC|RAP] FILE CLOSE fileid Close file with specified fileid on remote server. [RPC|RAP] FILE INFO fileid Print information on specified fileid. Currently listed are: file-id, username, locks, path, permissions. [RAP|RPC] FILE USER Note Currently NOT implemented. SESSION RAP SESSION Without any other options, SESSION enumerates all active SMB/CIFS ses- sions on the target server. RAP SESSION DELETE|CLOSE CLIENT_NAME Close the specified sessions. RAP SESSION INFO CLIENT_NAME Give a list with all the open files in specified session. RAP SERVER DOMAIN List all servers in specified domain or workgroup. Defaults to local domain. RAP DOMAIN Lists all domains and workgroups visible on the current network. RAP PRINTQ RAP PRINTQ LIST QUEUE_NAME Lists the specified print queue and print jobs on the server. If the QUEUE_NAME is omitted, all queues are listed. RAP PRINTQ DELETE JOBID Delete job with specified id. RAP VALIDATE user [password] Validate whether the specified user can log in to the remote server. If the password is not specified on the commandline, it will be prompted. Note Currently NOT implemented. RAP GROUPMEMBER RAP GROUPMEMBER LIST GROUP List all members of the specified group. RAP GROUPMEMBER DELETE GROUP USER Delete member from group. RAP GROUPMEMBER ADD GROUP USER Add member to group. RAP ADMIN command Execute the specified command on the remote server. Only works with OS/2 servers. Note Currently NOT implemented. RAP SERVICE RAP SERVICE START NAME [arguments...] Start the specified service on the remote server. Not implemented yet. Note Currently NOT implemented. RAP SERVICE STOP Stop the specified service on the remote server. Note Currently NOT implemented. RAP PASSWORD USER OLDPASS NEWPASS Change password of USER from OLDPASS to NEWPASS. LOOKUP LOOKUP HOST HOSTNAME [TYPE] Lookup the IP address of the given host with the specified type (net- bios suffix). The type defaults to 0x20 (workstation). LOOKUP LDAP [DOMAIN Give IP address of LDAP server of specified DOMAIN. Defaults to local domain. LOOKUP KDC [REALM] Give IP address of KDC for the specified REALM. Defaults to local realm. LOOKUP DC [DOMAIN] Give IP's of Domain Controllers for specified DOMAIN. Defaults to lo- cal domain. LOOKUP MASTER DOMAIN Give IP of master browser for specified DOMAIN or workgroup.

All the timeout parameters support the suffixes: s - Secondsm - Min- utesh - Hoursd - Daysw - Weeks CACHE ADD key data time-out Add specified key+data to the cache with the given timeout. CACHE DEL key Delete key from the cache. CACHE SET key data time-out Update data of existing cache entry. CACHE SEARCH PATTERN Search for the specified pattern in the cache data. CACHE LIST List all current items in the cache. CACHE FLUSH Remove all the current items from the cache. GETLOCALSID [DOMAIN] Print the SID of the specified domain, or if the parameter is omitted, the SID of the domain the local server is in. SETLOCALSID S-1-5-21-x-y-z Sets domain sid for the local server to the specified SID. GROUPMAP Manage the mappings between Windows group SIDs and UNIX groups. Parame- ters take the for "parameter=value". Common options include: o unixgroup - Name of the UNIX group o ntgroup - Name of the Windows NT group (must be resolvable to a SID o rid - Unsigned 32-bit integer o sid - Full SID in the form of "S-1-..." o type - Type of the group; either 'domain', 'local', or 'builtin' o comment - Freeform text description of the group GROUPMAP ADD Add a new group mapping entry net groupmap add rid=int|sid=string unixgroup=string [type={do- main|local}] [ntgroup=string] [comment=string] GROUPMAP DELETE Delete a group mapping entry.

On most web browsers you can double click any word on this page to see what definitions I have for that word.

This dictionary server is not an authoratative source of information for anything. Like almost everything at sorabji.com, I set this up for my own purposes. In this case the purpose is to browse words and ideas at random. An automatically generated page that produces 1000 Random Words is my gateway to this resource. I also attempt a word of the day project, in which I attempt to write something about myself starting with interesting words that I find through the Wordswarm Random Words Pages. I have made available the complete 1828 Webster's Dictionary, which many feel is the greatest English dictionary ever published.

Other random links of mine include the Sorabji.com Random Link, which sends you to one of over 7,000 pages on my web sites; the Face Server produces random images of human faces; clicking the Random WAYD link shows you a random posting to my "What Are You Doing?" board; the Random USPS Mailbox link sends you to a page with information about a random mailbox; and the random pictures page page of sorabji.com shows one of over 11,000 random images any time you load the page. On an unrelated note, I have begun making several thousand pages of legal documents searchable.
