     id(1)                      DG/UX 4.30                       id(1)



     NAME
          id - print user and group IDs and names

     SYNOPSIS
          id [ -g | -u ] [ -nr ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Id writes a message on the standard output giving the user
          and group IDs and the corresponding names of the invoking
          process.  If the effective and real IDs do not match, both
          are printed.

          Also, if there are any supplementary group affiliations,
          they will also be printed.

          Options are:

          -g   Output only the effective group ID.  This may be
               followed by any supplementary group IDs that are
               different from the effective group ID.

          -u   Output only the effective user ID.

          -r   Used with -g or -u, output the real ID instead of the
               effective ID.

          -n   Used with -g or -u, output the name instead of the
               numeric ID.

     EXAMPLES
          $ id
          uid=3000(intern) gid=1(other) groups=0(sys),5(mail)
          $

          Displays your user id, username, group id and group name on
          the standard output.  Also, in this example, you will notice
          there are two other supplementary groups that are valid for
          this user.
