HP Systems Insight Manager 6.3 Command Line Interface Guide

-n nodename
Specify the system name for the authorization. The wildcard character (*) is
supported for nodename.
-g groupname
Specify the system group name for the authorization. The wildcard character (*) is
supported for groupname. This option does not support user groups.
NOTE: When duplicate options are specified, the last instance of the option is used. For example,
if you enter -f file1 -f file2, mxauth uses file2.
External influences
For HP-UX and Linux, LANG determines the default encoding that the system will use to output XML
data if no encoding is specified on the command line. If LANG is not specified or null, or LANG
does not correspond to a recognized encoding, it defaults to C (see lang (5)). In this case, use
the -b option to specify the encoding of the XML data.
