creds

Display user and group information

APPLICABILITY

ClearCase (command)

SYNOPSIS

ccase-home-dir\etc\utils\creds options

DESCRIPTION

The creds utility displays user and group information for the currently logged-in user for the local Windows NT host. The value of the user's Primary Group is affected by the CLEARCASE_PRIMARY_GROUP environment variable. If this EV is set, creds displays its value, which is used only for ClearCase processing. If this EV is not set, creds displays the user's Windows NT primary group.

creds also displays the user's ClearCase privilege status:

You have ClearCase administrative privileges

You are a member of the ClearCase group.

You do not have ClearCase administrative privileges

You are not a member of the ClearCase group.

You do not have to be in the ClearCase group to use ClearCase. However, members of this group have more privileges to create and modify ClearCase objects. See the permissions reference page for more information.

PERMISSIONS AND LOCKS

Permissions Checking: No special permissions required. Locks: No locks apply.

OPTIONS AND ARGUMENTS

By default, creds displays the credentials for the current user. Lookup is done on the local machine. To display a usage message, type the following command:
