DESCRIPTION
The rgy_edit tool views and edits information in the registry database.
You can invoke rgy_edit from any node.
You can edit and view principals, groups, organization, accounts, and
policies in the network registry (the default) or perform a subset of
those functions on the local registry (using the -l option). Changes
made by rgy_edit apply only to the registry. They do not apply to the
local override file or the local password and group files, both of
which can be edited manually. You can view and change only those
registry objects to which you are granted the appropriate permissions.
INVOKING RGY_EDIT
When you invoke rgy_edit, it displays the following prompt:
rgy_edit=>
At this prompt, you can enter any of the rgy_edit subcommands, and
rgy_edit will prompt you for the required information. Alternatively,
you can enter the subcommand followed by all the options required to
perform a specific operation. The rgy_edit command may prompt you for
any required information you do not enter.
SUBCOMMANDS
In the rgy_edit subcommands that follow, use two double quotation
marks with nothing in between to indicate a null fullname, password,
misc, homedir, or shell. Use double quotation marks to embed spaces,
or hyphens in fullname, misc, and homedir if you specify the argument
on the command line.
