Source: unixgroupadmin Section: admin Priority: extra Maintainer: Panu Kalliokoski Build-Depends: cdbs, debhelper (>= 8.0.0), stx2any Standards-Version: 3.9.3 Homepage: http://members.sange.fi/~atehwa/vc/prod/unixgroupadmin/ Vcs-Browser: http://members.sange.fi/~atehwa/vc/prod/unixgroupadmin/ Package: unixgroupadmin Architecture: any Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Description: Customizable group self-service on /etc/group Unixgroupadmin provides a command "group" which ordinary users can use to add new groups, add members to their groups, part groups, and manage who is responsible for a group. Who is allowed to do what kind of operation is customizable by a global configuration file. . Unlike most other group self-provisioning systems, Unixgroupadmin operates directly on the standard unix group database, /etc/group. This means that you can use it as a drop-in addition in your system, because it will not clobber any group management by traditional means (such as addgroup, groupadd and vigr). . As Unixgroupadmin handles /etc/group, the "group" command is installed SUID root. Note that by default configuration, installing Unixgroupadmin will allow ordinary users to add new members to their already existing groups!
