Adding Groups and Organizations

Use the dcecp group create command to add groups and the dcecp organization create command to add organizations. When you add a group or organization, you must specify the group's or organization's primary name. In addition, you can supply the attribute options listed in the following table.

Note that, when you use the dcecp group create command and dcecp organization create command, you can create multiple groups or organizations with one command in the same way that you can create multiple principals. See Adding Principals for details.


Attribute Options to Create Groups and Organizations

Information Meaning
-gid The required UNIX ID that is associated with the group or organization. You can enter this number explicitly or allow it to be generated automatically. The number that is entered cannot exceed the maximum allowable UNIX number (the maxuid attribute) set with the dcecp registry modify command; however, you can enter a number lower than the low UNIX number (the minuid attribute) set for groups or organizations with the registry modify command. If you allow the number to be assigned automatically, it falls in the range defined by the low UNIX number and the maximum UNIX number.
-fullname string An optional name that is used to more fully describe a primary name. To include spaces, enclose the full name in braces. The default is blank.
-inprojlist value For groups only, whether the group can be on project lists. The default is yes.
