=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command adds each user or machine entry named by the B<-user> argument as a member of each group named by the B<-group> argument. To remove members of a group, use the B command. To list the groups to which a user or machine belongs, or the members of a specified group, use the B command. =head1 CAUTIONS After being added as a group member, a currently authenticated user must reauthenticate (for example, by issuing the B or B commands) to obtain permissions granted to the group on an access control list (ACL). =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-user> >+ Specifies the name of each user or machine entry to add to each group named by the B<-group> argument. The name of a machine entry resembles an IP address and can use the wildcard notation described on the B reference page. The user or machine entry must already exist in the Protection Database. =item B<-group> >+ Specifies the complete name (including the owner prefix if applicable) of each group to which to add members. The group entry must already exist in the Protection Database. =include fragments/pts-common.pod =back =head1 EXAMPLES The following example adds user smith to the group system:administrators. % pts adduser -user smith -group system:administrators The following example adds users C, C, and B to the smith:colleagues group. % pts adduser -user jones terry pat -group smith:colleagues The following example adds the machine entries in the ABC Corporation subnet to the group C. Because of the IP address range of the ABC Corporation subnet, the system administrator was able to group the machines into three machine entries (using the wildcard notation discussed on the B reference page). % pts adduser -user 138.255.0.0 192.12.105.0 192.12.106.0 -group bin-prot =head1 PRIVILEGE REQUIRED The required privilege depends on the setting of the fourth privacy flag in the Protection Database entry for each group named by the B<-group> argument (use the B command to display the flags): =over 4 =item * If it is the hyphen, only the group's owner and members of the system:administrators group can add members. =item * If it is lowercase C, current members of the group can add new members. =item * If it is uppercase C, anyone who can access the cell's database server machines can add new members. =back =head1 SEE ALSO L, L, L, L, L, L =head1 COPYRIGHT IBM Corporation 2000.
