remove group(1m) remove group(1m)NAME
remove group - Removes all group members and the group from the specified name service entry
SYNOPSIS
rpccp remove group group-entry-name [-s syntax]
OPTIONS
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
Indicates 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 remove group command removes a group from the name service database. The group need not be empty. The entry name of the group is
required.
Privilege Required
You need write permission to the CDS object entry (the target group entry).
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 remove the group from the name service entry /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group: $ rpccp rpccp> remove
group /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group

show group - Shows the members of a group
SYNOPSIS
rpccp show group group-entry-name [-m member] [-r [ integer]] [-s syntax] [-u]
OPTIONS
Declares the name of a single group member. Indicates that the show group operation recurses. If any members of a group are also groups,
their entries are shown. By default, the -r option causes the show group operation to recurse until all nested groups are expanded; for
example, -r shows the members of the specified group and all nested groups.
You can limit recursion to one or more levels by specifying a decimal integer as part of the -r option. For example, -r 1 shows the members
of the specified group and, for members that are groups, the command also shows their members; then recursion stops.
Without the -r option, only the members of the specified group are shown. 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, speci-
fying the -s option is unnecessary. Updates the local CDS cache copy of name service data (optional).
Name service data is cached locally on each machine in a cell. If an rpccp inquiry can be satisfied by data in the local CDS cache, this
cached data is returned. Locally cached copies of name service data might not include a recent CDS update, however. If the required data
is not available in the local CDS cache, rpccp goes to a CDS server(s) to retrieve the required data. rpccp then updates the local CDS
cache.
Using the -u option bypasses the local cache, allowing rpccp to go directly to a CDS server for the inquiry. rpccp then updates the local
CDS cache.
ARGUMENTS
Indicates 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 show group command shows the members of a group in the name service database. The entry name of the group is required. Unless it is
limited to a specific member (by the -m option), the show group command shows all members. The command shows only the members in the spec-
ified group; the -r option enables you to show members of nested groups.
Privilege Required
You need read permission to the CDS object entry (the target group entry). If you use the -r option, you also need read permission to any
nested groups.
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 example shows all the members of the group /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group, in the order in which they were added to the
group: $ rpccp rpccp> show group /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group The following command operates from the system prompt to show a specific
member of the group /.:/LandS/dept/Calendar_group: $ rpccp show group > -m /.:/LandS/anthro/Cal_host_2 > /.:/LandS/anthro/Calen-
dar_group
