 NAME

   remove directory - Removes a value from a set-valued or single-valued
                      attribute (including application-defined attributes)
                      of a directory

 SYNOPSIS

   cdscp remove directory directory-name attribute-name [= attribute-value]

 ARGUMENTS

   directory-name
             The full name of the directory.

   attribute-name
             The name of a particular attribute.  Specify only one
             attribute at a time.  See the cds_attributes file for the
             list of attributes and corresponding data types that your
             application uses.

   attribute-value
             The value of a particular attribute.  The value of an
             application-defined attribute is dependent on the type of
             attribute.

 DESCRIPTION

   The remove directory command removes a value from a set-valued or
   single-valued attribute (including application-defined attributes)
   of a directory.  If you do not specify a value, the command removes
   the entire attribute.  This command can delete attributes created by
   the add directory and set directory commands.  Usually this task is
   performed through the client application.  See the OSF DCE
   Administration Guide for more information about attributes.

   Privilege Required

   You must have write permission to the directory.

 NOTE

   This command is replaced at Revision 1.1 by the dcecp command and
   may not be provided in future releases of DCE.

 EXAMPLE

   To remove the value 1 from the user-defined, set-valued attribute
   dirregion of a directory named  /.:/sales, follow these steps:

    1.  Read the cds_attributes file to check that the attribute dirregion
        is listed, as shown in the following display:

                 OID           LABEL         SYNTAX
             1.3.22.1.3.66   dirregion       small

    2.  Enter the following command to remove the value 1 from the
        attribute dirregion.

             cdscp> remove directory /.:/sales dirregion = 1
