Adding and Deleting Group Members
The display shows:
Because ADMIN.DON is the owner of these groups, he can use the ALTER GROUP
command to manage the groups. In addition, because ADMIN.DON is on the
OBJECTTYPE USER access control list, he can use the ADD USER command to add
users to the group PROG4 and thereby activate it as an administrative group.
To add the first user authentication record to the group PROG4, Don enters this
command:
=ADD USER prog4.susan, 144,1, PASSWORD tempFix
Because USER commands are not case-sensitive, the group name portion of the new
users user name need not be entered in uppercase.
Use the INFO GROUP command to verify the results of the command:
=INFO GROUP PROG4, DETAIL

Adding and Deleting Group Members
You can add file-sharing members to a group with the MEMBER option in an ADD
GROUP or ALTER GROUP command. Assume that ADMIN.DON wants to add three
users to the group PROG4 so that they can access certain files reserved for the
PROG4 group. He enters this command:
=ALTER GROUP NUMBER 144, MEMBER test.phil, test.june, &
=Group-Super
This command adds the users TEST.PHIL and TEST.JUNE and the user alias
Group-Super to the group PROG4. The group owner, ADMIN.DON, has no
administrative control over the user and alias authentication records for these users,
but he does control their membership in the group PROG4.
Use the INFO GROUP command to verify the results of the commands:
=INFO GROUP PROG4, DETAIL
