Digg  posix_getgrgid
Return info about a group by group id
(PHP 4, PHP 5)
Example 1871. Example use of posix_getgrgid()<?phpThe above example will output something similar to: ArrayCode Examples / Notes » posix_getgrgidrcgraves+php
Returns an array containing the elements of the group structure. The array has both numeric indices, each of which is a string naming one member of the group, and named string indices. The array elements are: <pre> $_["name"] string groupname (users) $_["gid"] integer gidnumber (e.g. 0 for wheel/root) $_["members"] int number of users in group $_[0]..$_[n] string usernames in the group </pre> tech
okies... This code should be considered as an OPTION only, it works under MY set of circumstances, and that is all I intended. The below funtion will return the NAME of the GROUP if provided with the Group ID# function RC_posix_getgrgid($gid) { $LocationGroup = "/etc/group"; //EDIT THIS IF YOU HAVE A DIFFERENT OS. mine = debian $fp = fopen ("/etc/group","r"); while ($groupinfo = fscanf ($fp, "%[a-zA-Z0-9]:x:%[0-9]:%[a-zA-Z0-9]\n")) { list ($name, $groupID, $nfi) = $groupinfo; if ($groupID == $gid) { $returnval = $name; } } fclose($fp); if($returnval) { return $returnval; } else { return 0; } } james
in php-4.3 the array returned seems to have changed. it now returns: ["name"] group name ["passwd"] group password ["members"] group members (array of usernames) ["gid"] numeric group id |
