How to Define a Project and View the Current Project

Perform this procedure to add a project entry and then to alter that entry.

1. Become root or assume an equivalent role.
2. View the default /etc/project file on your system.

   # projects -l
   system
           projid : 0
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   user.root
           projid : 1
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   noproject
           projid : 2
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   default
           projid : 3
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   group.staff
           projid : 10
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 

3. Add a project.

   # projadd -U username -p project-id project-name

4. View the /etc/project file again.

   # projects -l
   system
           projid : 0
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   
   project-name
           projid : project-id
           comment: ""
           users  : username
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 

5. Add a comment that describes the project in the comment field.

   # projmod -c 'project-comment' project-name

6. View the changes in the /etc/project file.

   # projects -l
   system
           projid : 0
           comment: ""
           users  : (none)
           groups : (none)
           attribs: 
   …
   project-name
           projid : project-id
           comment: "project-comment"
           users  : username
           groups : (none)
           attribs:
