speciﬁed will be searched until the group is found (see nisdefaults(1)).

DIAGNOSTICS

NIS_PERMISSION

When you do not have the needed access right to change the group, the command

returns this error.

NIS_NOTFOUND This is returned when the group does not exist.

NIS_TRYAGAIN This error is returned when the server for the group’s domain is currently checkpointing

or otherwise in a read-only state. The command should be retried at a later date.

NIS_MODERROR This error is returned when the group was modiﬁed by someone else during the execu-

tion of the command. Reissue the command and optionally recheck the group’s member-

ship list.

WARNINGS

HP-UX 11i Version 2 is the last HP-UX release on which NIS+ is supported.

LDAP is the recommended replacement for NIS+. HP fully supports the industry standard naming ser-

vices based on LDAP.
