Enter "<ESC>" to quit :
Figure 23 - This is an example of the list of files owned by the group “devel”. Selection A displays this
list.
B) Continue to delete the group/leave files as they are. This option deletes the group from the
group file but leaves the GID as the file group. If there are users with this group as their GID in the
passwd file, these references are not deleted. Enter “B” to select this option.
C) Change ownership of these files to another group. This selection will prompt for a new
group. This is a global change. All files with the old group will be changed to the specified new group. If
you wish to change some of the old group’s files to one group and others to another group, you must make
your changes through the File System maintenance screen. To select this global change option enter “C”.
SENTRY will display the file pathnames and its progress through the list of files. Here is a sample of the
screen SENTRY displays when this choice is invoked (Figure 25).
