DESCRIPTION¶
dpns-chown sets the owner and/or the group of a DPNS directory/file in
the name server to the values in
owner and
group respectively.
To change the owner ID, if the group ID does not change and if the caller and
the new owner ID belong to that group, GRP_ADMIN privilege is needed,
otherwise the caller must have ADMIN privilege in the Cupv database. To change
the group ID, the effective user ID of the process must match the owner ID of
the file and the new group must be in the list of groups the caller belong to
or the caller must have ADMIN privilege in the Cupv database.

- is either a valid username or a valid numeric ID.
- group

it is prefixed by the content of the DPNS_HOME environment
variable.

itself.
