       Processes owned by other users may have this privilege, depending on system configuration.  See privileges(5) for  more	information  about
       privileged access on systems that support fine-grained privileges.

RETURN VALUE

       Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned; otherwise, a -1 is returned and is set to indicate the error.
