NS(1)                       General Commands Manual                      NS(1)



NAME
       ns - display name space

SYNOPSIS
       ns [ -r ] [ pid ]

DESCRIPTION
       Ns  prints  a representation of the file name space of the process with
       the named pid, or by default itself.  The output is in the form  of  an
       rc(1)  script  that  could, in principle, recreate the name space.  The
       output  is  produced  by  reading  and  reformatting  the  contents  of
       /proc/pid/ns.

       By  default,  ns  rewrites the names of network data files to represent
       the network address that data file is connected to, for example replac‐
       ing  /net/tcp/82/data  with  tcp!123.122.121.9.  The -r flag suppresses
       this rewriting.

FILES
       /proc/*/ns

SOURCE

SEE ALSO

BUGS
       The names of files printed by ns will be inaccurate if a file or direc‐
       tory it includes has been renamed.

       The  name  of  this  tool  is  reminiscent  of  National  Socialism and
       NeXTSTEP, it's hard to decide which one is worse.
