I know there is a "groups" command to list the groups a user belongs to, but how about the opposite? Is there a standard command to find out which users belong to a particular group? (2 Replies)

I've written a python program where I want to allow members of a specific group the ability to kill it, and I'm not sure how to do it.

Is there a command to get a list of group members? Something similar to the groups command, but instead of passing a username and returning groups, you pass it a groupname, and it returns members?
It is difficult to do it manually because the group membership information is split across two... (5 Replies)

Hi!
I created a group HACKERS and made the user "demo" its member.

loadwatch
LOADWATCH(1) General Commands Manual LOADWATCH(1)NAME
loadwatch - run a program when machine is idle
SYNOPSIS
loadwatch [options] -p pid | [--] prog [args]
DESCRIPTION
loadwatch either spawns a child process prog with the arguments args and controls it with all its process group, or takes control of an
already running process with pid pid with all its process group.
loadwatch allows the controlled processes to run while the load average remains below high_limit. Every delay seconds, loadwatch checks the
load average. If the load is above high_limit, the child is suspended; the child is resumed when the load falls below low_limit.
OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below.
-h high_limit
A decimal value that sets the system load at which the child process will be suspended. (Default: 1.25)
-l low_limit
A decimal value that sets the system load at which the child process will be resumed. (Default: 0.25)
-d delay
An integral number of seconds that sets how often the system load will be checked. (Default: 10)
-n copies
An integer value that sets the number of copies of prog to run. (Default: 1)
-u file
Create a UNIX domain socket file for use by lw-ctl.
-p pid The pid of the program that should be controlled by loadwatch (with all its process group).
SEE ALSO lw-ctl(1), nice(1)BUGS
You should choose low_limit and high_limit carefully. When the load drops below low_limit, the process(es) will be resumed, and it should
not, by itself, cause the load to raise above high_limit, or the whole will oscillate, periodically suspending and resuming the
process(es).
Similarly, if several instances of loadwatch are running, they may resume their processes at the same time, leading to oscillations if the
limits are not carefully chosen. Hence, each instance of loadwatch affects every other instance on the computer, and should not be consid-
ered in isolation.
