To create a group with
nicl
, you’ll need to create
a directory under /groups and set the
gid and passwd properties.
If you want a password, it must be encrypted with crypt( ). If you don’t want a group password, use
an asterisk instead. (Be sure to quote the * so
that the shell does not attempt to expand it.) The following creates
a group named writers as GID 5005 with no
password and no members:
# nicl / create /groups/writers gid 5005 # nicl / create /groups/writers passwd '*'
