int dpns_chown (const char *path,uid_t new_uid,gid_t new_gid)
int dpns_lchown (const char *path,uid_t new_uid,gid_t new_gid)
DESCRIPTION
dpns_chown
sets the owner and the group of a DPNS directory/file in the name server to
the numeric values in
owner
and
group
respectively.
If
owner
or
group
is specified as -1,
dpns_chown()
does not change the corresponding ID of the file.
dpns_lchown
is identical to
dpns_chown
except for symbolic links: it does not follow the link but changes the ownership
of the link itself.
path
specifies the logical pathname relative to the current DPNS directory or
the full DPNS pathname.
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.
RETURN VALUE
This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation
failed. In the latter case,
serrno
is set appropriately.
ERRORS
EPERM
The effective user ID does not match the owner of the file and
the caller does not have ADMIN privilege in the Cupv database.
ENOENT
The named file/directory does not exist or is a null pathname.
EACCES
Search permission is denied on a component of the
path
prefix.
EFAULT
path
is a NULL pointer.
ENOTDIR
A component of
path
prefix is not a directory.
EINVAL
new_uid
or
new_gid
is invalid.
ENAMETOOLONG
The length of
path
exceeds
CA_MAXPATHLEN
or the length of a
path
component exceeds
CA_MAXNAMELEN.
