fdetach(1M)

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

Synopsis

fdetach path

Description

The fdetach command detaches a STREAMS-based file descriptor from a name in the filesystem. path is the pathname of the object in the filesystem 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 operate on the filesystem node and not on the STREAMS file. The permissions and status of the node are restored to the state they were in before the STREAMS file was attached to it.
