I didn't find an equivalent System i page like
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocenter/aix/v6r1/index.jsp?topic=/com.ibm.a
ix.basetechref/doc/basetrf1/getpwent.htm, but I believe this will get you
where you want to be.

Also (most) everything you see here should be available way back.

HMMMMmmmmmmm....... And available all the way back to V4R2. Maybe
further than that.

And it looks like "fchown()" might be an even better fit. Thanks.

Does anybody have any experience with chown() and fchown()?

It looks like it wants numbers for the user and group IDs. How do I get
these numbers? (May I assume that "QUSER" is guaranteed to map to some
fixed number across all systems?)

Speaking of which, what's this about IFS objects having a primary group?
I thought only users could have group IDs.
