This token has been replaced by the newgroups token, which provides the same type of information but requires less space. A description of the groups token is provided here for completeness, but the application designer should use the newgroups token. Note that praudit does not distinguish between the two tokens as both token IDs are labelled groups when character output is displayed.
The groups token records the groups entries from the process's credential. The fields are:
A token ID
An array of groups entries of size NGROUPS_MAX (16)
The following figure shows a groups token.
A groups token is displayed by praudit as follows:
group,staff,wheel,daemon,kmem,bin,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1,-1
The groups token is output only when the audit policy group is active. See "The auditconfig Command" for more information.
