Nameserver commands

The full list of CASTOR man-pages can be viewed with the command 'man -k castor'

All ns* commands talk only to the "nameserver" - no actual data is accessed, and commands are reasonably fast.

ns* - manage/query file metadata

nsls - list files

nsrename - change file name

nsmkdir - new directories

nsln - 'symlink'

nsrm - delete files 

nschmod - changer permission

nschown - change owner:group

nsfind - look for files
