System Administration Commands smgroup(1M)

NAME

smgroup - manage group entries

SYNOPSIS

/usr/sadm/bin/smgroup subcommand [ auth_args] --

[subcommand_args]

DESCRIPTION

The smgroup command manages one or more group definitions in

the group database for the appropriate files in the local /etc files name service or an NIS name service.

The following smgroup subcommands are supported

add Adds a new group entry. To add an entry, the administrator must have the solaris.admin.usermgr.write authorization. delete Deletes a group entry. You can delete only one

entry at a time. To delete an entry, the adminis-

trator must have the solaris.admin.usermgr.write authorization. Note: You cannot delete the system groups with IDs less than 100, or the groups 60001, 60002, or 65534. list Lists one or more group entries in the form of a

three-column list, containing the group name,

group ID, and group members, separated by colons (:). To list entries, the administrator must have the solaris.admin.usermgr.read authorization. modify Modifies a group entry. To modify an entry, the administrator must have the solaris.admin.usermgr.write authorization. OPTIONS

The smgroup authentication arguments, auth_args, are derived

from the smc(1M) arg set and are the same regardless of

which subcommand you use. The smgroup command requires the

Solaris Management Console to be initialized for the command to succeed (see smc(1M)). After rebooting the Solaris

Management Console server, the first Solaris Management Con-

sole connection might time out, so you might need to retry the command.

System Administration Commands smgroup(1M)

The subcommand-specific options, subcommand_args, must come

after the auth_args and must be separated from them by the

-- option.

auth_args

The valid auth_args are -D, -H, -l, -p, -r, and -u; they are

all optional. If no auth_args are specified, certain

defaults will be assumed and the user may be prompted for

additional information, such as a password for authentica-

tion purposes. These letter options can also be specified by their equivalent option words preceded by a double dash. For

example, you can use either -D or --domain.

The following auth_args are supported:

-D | --domain 13;domain

Specifies the default domain that you want to manage.

The syntax of domain is type:/host_name/domain_name,

where type is nis, dns, ldap or file; host_name is the

name of the machine that serves the domain; and

domain_name is the name of the domain you want to

manage.

If you do not specify this option, the Solaris Manage-

ment Console assumes the file default domain on whatever server you choose to manage, meaning that changes are local to the server. Toolboxes can change the domain on

a tool-by-tool basis; this option specifies the domain

for all other tools.

-H | --hostname 13;host_name:port

Specifies the host_name and port to which you want to

connect. If you do not specify a port, the system con-

nects to the default port, 898. If you do not specify

host_name:port, the Solaris Management Console connects

to the local host on port 898. You may still have to choose a toolbox to load into the console. To override

this behavior, use the smc(1M) -B option, or set your

console preferences to load a "home toolbox" by default.

-l | --rolepassword 13;role_password

Specifies the password for the role_name. If you specify

a role_name but do not specify a role_password, the sys-

tem prompts you to supply a role_password. Passwords

specified on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.

System Administration Commands smgroup(1M)

-p | --password 13;password

Specifies the password for the user_name. If you do not

specify a password, the system prompts you for one. Passwords specified on the command line can be seen by any user on the system, hence this option is considered insecure.

-r | --rolename 13;role_name

Specifies a role name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, no role is assumed.

-u | --username 13;user_name

Specifies the user name for authentication. If you do not specify this option, the user identity running the console process is assumed.

--

This option is required and must always follow the preceding options. If you do not enter the preceding

options, you must still enter the -- option.

subcommand_args

Descriptions and other argument options that contain white spaces must be enclosed in double quotes.

The add subcommand supports the following subcommand_args:

-g gid

(Optional) Specifies the group ID for the new group. The

group ID must be a non-negative decimal integer with a

maximum value of 2MB (2,147,483,647). Group IDs 0-99 are

reserved for the system and should be used with care. If you do not specify a gid, the system automatically

assigns the next available gid. To maximize interopera-

bility and compatibility, administrators are recommended to assign groups using the range of GIDs below 60000 where possible.

-h

(Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.

System Administration Commands smgroup(1M)

-m group_member1 -m group_member2 . . .

(Optional) Specifies the new members to add to the group.

-n group_name

Specifies the name of the new group. The group name must

be unique within a domain, contain 2-32 alphanumeric

characters, begin with a letter, and contain at least one lowercase letter. The delete subcommand supports the following

subcommand_args:

-h (Optional) Displays the command's usage

statement.

-n group_name Specifies the name of the group you want to

delete.

The list subcommand supports the following subcommand_args

-h (Optional) Displays the command's usage

statement.

-n group_name (Optional) Specifies the name of the group

you want to list. If you do not specify a group name, all groups are listed.

The modify subcommand supports the following subcommand_args

-h

(Optional) Displays the command's usage statement.

-m group_member1 -m group_member2 . . .

(Optional) Specifies the new members to add to the

group. Note that group_member overwrites the existing

member list in the group file.

the group:

./smgroup add -H myhost -p mypasswd -u root -- -n test_group \

-m test_member1 -m test_member2 -g 123

Example 2 Deleting a Group

The following deletes test_group:

./smgroup delete -H myhost -p mypasswd -u root -- -n test_group

Example 3 Displaying All Groups

The following displays all groups in a three-column list

showing the group name, group ID, and group members:

./smgroup list -H myhost -p mypasswd -u root --

Example 5 Renaming a Group The following renames a group from finance to accounting:

./smgroup modify -H myhost -p mypasswd -u root -- \

-n finance -N accounting
