remove group(8rpc)

Removes all group members and the group from the specified name service entry

Synopsis

rpccp remove group group-entry-name
[-s syntax]

Options

-s syntax
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.

Privileges Required
You need write permission to the CDS object entry (the target group entry).

Notes
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 the RPC control program (rpccp) and remove the group from the name service entry /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group:

rpccp> remove group /.:/LandS/anthro/Calendar_group
