.SH NAME
lookup \- password lookup service -- initiator
.SH SYNOPSIS
.in +.5i
.ti -.5i
.B lookup
host
\%[operation\0[\0arguments\0...\0]\0]
.in -.5i
.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIlookup\fR program requests an operation from the password
lookup service provided by a server using remote operations.
The currently supported operations are:
.sp
.in +.5i
.nf
.ta \w'\fBlookupUser\fR  'u
\fIoperation\fR	\fIdescription\fR
\fBlookupUser\fR	lookup based on user-name
\fBlookupUID\fR	lookup based on user-ID
.re
.fi
.in -.5i
.sp
This program is provided primarily as an example of how one can use
\fIThe Application Cookbook\fR to write programs which use remote operations.
It initiates remote operations to the \*(lqisode passwd lookup
demo\*(rq service. 
.PP
If no operation is given on the command line,
then \fIlookup\fR enters interactive mode:
\fIlookup\fR will examine each line of the standard\-input,
treating the first word as the operation, and any remaining words as
arguments.
.PP
The pseudo\-operations \fIhelp\fR and \fIquit\fR do the obvious things.
