SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

15       This  program will scan the alive PIDs, looking for which GID is unused
16       in the supplied, inclusive range specified by  the  required  arguments
17       min-gid  and  max-gid. Upon finding one, it will add the GID to its own
18       supplementary group list, and then scan the  PIDs  again  expecting  to
19       find  only itself using the GID. If no collision has occurred, the pro‐
20       gram exits, otherwise it retries.
21

GENERAL REMARKS
