NAME
setregid - set real and effective group ID
SYNOPSIS
setregid(rgid, egid)
int rgid, egid;
DESCRIPTION
The real and effective group ID’s of the current
process are set to
the arguments. Unprivileged users may change the real group
ID to
the effective group ID and vice-versa; only the super-user
may make
other changes.
Supplying a value of -1 for
either the real or effective group ID
forces the system to substitute the current ID in place of
the -1
parameter.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned.
Otherwise, a
value of -1 is returned and errno is set to indicate the
error.
ERRORS
[EPERM] The current process is not the super-user and a
change other than changing the effective group-id to
the real group-id was specified.
