NAME
setpgrp - set process group
SYNOPSIS
setpgrp(pid, pgrp)
int pid, pgrp;
DESCRIPTION
Setpgrp sets the process group of the specified process pid
to the
specified pgrp. If pid is zero, then the call applies to the
current process.
If the invoker is not the
super-user, then the affected process
must have the same effective user-id as the invoker or be a
descendant of the invoking process.
RETURN VALUE
Setpgrp returns when the operation was successful. If the
request
failed, -1 is returned and the global variable errno
indicates the
reason.
ERRORS
Setpgrp will fail and the process group will not be altered
if one
of the following occur:
[ESRCH] The requested process does not exist.
[EPERM] The effective user ID of
the requested process is
different from that of the caller and the process is
not a descendent of the calling process.
