NAME

       pqstat - List jobs in NetWare print queue

SYNOPSIS

       pqstat [ -h ] [ -S server ] [ -U user name ] [ -P password
        | -n ] [ -C ] [ -B ] queue name [ job count ]

DESCRIPTION

       pqstat  lists specified number of jobs from the specified NetWare print
       queue available to you on some server. If you are already connected  to
       some server, this one is used.

       If  pqstat  does  not print to a tty, the decorative header line is not
       printed, so that you can count the jobs in print queue by doing

         pqstat -S server queue | wc -l

       pqstat looks up the file $HOME/.nwclient to find a file server, a  user
       name  and  possibly  a  password. See nwclient(5) for more information.
       Please note that the access permissions of .nwclient MUST be  600,  for
       security reasons.

OPTIONS

       queue name
          queue  name  is  used to specify queue. You can not use wildcards in
          the name.

       job count
          job count is used to specify how much entries will be shown. Default
          is to show all entries.

       -S server
          server is the name of the server you want to use.

       -U user name
          If the user name your NetWare administrator gave to you differs from
          your unix user-id, you should use -U to tell the server  about  your
          NetWare user name.

       -P password
          You  may  want  to  give  the password required by the server on the
          command line.  You  should  be  careful  about  using  passwords  in
          scripts.

       -n
          -n  should  be given to mount shares which do not require a password
          to log in.

          If neither -n nor -P are given, pqstat prompts for a password.

       -C
          By default, passwords are converted to  uppercase  before  they  are
          sent  to the server, because most servers require this. You can turn
          off this conversion by -C.

       -B
          By default, pqstat lists the Netware name of the  print  job  owner.
          -B causes it to list the banner name instead.
