One obvious concern on redesigning command UIs is breaking scripts, so we are especially interested in knowing which rc_toggle_basic commands people have built into scripts.
Here is a short list of commands I've been caught using. I don't have any of these in my scripts, but they are indispensable for me.
ypset (extremely usefull for networks w/o local NIS servers)
ypmatch (this doesn't seem to work now, but it would be nice to have to make sure that the filer has access to the right maps)
ypcat (see directly above)
On a side note, is there a command to be used from the console or rsh that allows one to log off the telnet session. This would be extremely usefull as some of our admins telnet in from Windows making it relatively hard to log them off.
