fdetach(1M)

NAME

     fdetach - detach a name from a STREAMS-based file descriptor

SYNOPSIS

     fdetach path

DESCRIPTION

     The  fdetach command detaches a  STREAMS-based file descrip-
     tor  from  a name in the file system. Use the   path operand
     to specify the path name of the object in  the  file  system
     name space, which was previously attached. See fattach(3C).

     The user must be the owner of the file or a  user  with  the
     appropriate  privileges.  All subsequent operations on  path
     will operate on the underlying file system entry and not  on
     the   STREAMS  file. The permissions and status of the entry
     are restored to the state they were  in before the   STREAMS
     file was attached to the entry.

OPERANDS

     The following operands are supported:

     path  Specifies the the path name of the object in the  file
           system name space, which was previously attached.
