If I have to add the special code, how does it look...

rpccp_add_member

add member(1m)															    add member(1m)

NAME

       add member - Adds a member to a group in a name service entry; if the specified entry does not exist, creates the entry

SYNOPSIS

       rpccp add member   group-entry-name -m member [-s syntax]

OPTIONS

       Declares the name of a member to be added to the specified group entry (required).

       You  can  add only one member at a time.  Indicates the name syntax of the entry name (optional). The only value for this option is the dce
       name syntax, which is the default name syntax. Until an alternative name syntax becomes available, specifying the -s option is unnecessary.

ARGUMENTS

       Specifies the name of the target group.	For an entry in the local cell, you can omit the cell name  and  specify  only	the  cell-relative
       name.

DESCRIPTION

       The  add  member  command adds a member to a group in a name service entry.  The name of the entry containing the group and the name of the
       new group member are required. The entry of a group may have been created previously (by either the add entry or add  member  command).	If
       the specified entry does not exist, the add member command tries to create the entry.

   Privilege Required
       You need both read permission and write permission to the CDS object entry (the target group entry).  If the entry does not exist, you also
       need insert permission to the parent directory.

NOTE

       This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

EXAMPLES

       The following commands run RPCCP and add the member /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_3	to  the  group	/.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group:  $  rpccp
       rpccp> add member   > -m /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_3   >  /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group

RELATED INFORMATION

       Commands: remove group(1m), remove member(1m), show group(1m)

																    add member(1m)
