ÜBERSICHT

       groupmod [Optionen] GRUPPE

BESCHREIBUNG

       The groupmod command modifies the definition of the specified GROUP by modifying the appropriate entry in
       the group database.

OPTIONEN

       The options which apply to the groupmod command are:

       -g, --gid GID
           The group ID of the given GROUP will be changed to GID.

           The value of GID must be a non-negative decimal integer. This value must be unique, unless the -o
           option is used.

           Benutzer, welche die Gruppe als Hauptgruppe verwenden, werden aktualisiert, um die Gruppe als
           Hauptgruppe zu behalten.

           Any files that have the old group ID and must continue to belong to GROUP, must have their group ID
           changed manually.

           No checks will be performed with regard to the GID_MIN, GID_MAX, SYS_GID_MIN, or SYS_GID_MAX from
           /etc/login.defs.

       -h, --help
           zeigt die Hilfe an und beendet das Programm

       -n, --new-name NEW_GROUP
           The name of the group will be changed from GROUP to NEW_GROUP name.

       -o, --non-unique
           When used with the -g option, allow to change the group GID to a non-unique value.

       -p, --password PASSWORD
           The encrypted password, as returned by crypt(3).

           Note: This option is not recommended because the password (or encrypted password) will be visible by
           users listing the processes.

           Sie sollten sicherstellen, dass das Passwort den Passwortrichtlinien des Systems entspricht.

       -R, --root CHROOT_DIR
           Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR
           directory.

       -P, --prefix PREFIX_DIR
           Apply changes in the PREFIX_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the PREFIX_DIR
           directory. This option does not chroot and is intended for preparing a cross-compilation target. Some
           limitations: NIS and LDAP users/groups are not verified. PAM authentication is using the host files.
           No SELINUX support.
