Each line consists of the key and the value, with a space separating the items. Blank lines are ignored, and a .Dq # is a comment character and indicates that the rest of the line should be ignored. .Pp .Ar outfile is the pathname of the generated databases. .Pp The options are as follows: .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl b Interdomain.

This option will only have effect on the maps .Pa hosts.byname and .Pa hosts.byaddr . .It Fl l Lowercase. Convert all keys to lower case before adding them to the YP database. .It Fl s Secure map.
