 NAME
   sec_rgy_pgo_add_member - Adds a person to a group or organization

 SYNOPSIS

   #include <dce/pgo.h>

   void sec_rgy_pgo_add_member(
           sec_rgy_handle_t context,
           sec_rgy_domain_t name_domain,
           sec_rgy_name_t go_name,
           sec_rgy_name_t person_name,
           error_status_t *status);

 PARAMETERS

   Input

   context
          An opaque handle bound to a registry server.  Use
          sec_rgy_site_open() to acquire a bound handle.

   name_domain
          This variable identifies the type of the person, group, or
          organization (PGO) item identified by the given name.  The
          valid values are as follows:

          sec_rgy_domain_group
                      The go_name parameter identifies a group.

          sec_rgy_domain_org
                      The go_name parameter identifies an organization.

   go_name
          A character string (type sec_rgy_name_t) containing the name
          of the group or organization to which the specified person will
          be added.

   person_name
          A character string (type sec_rgy_name_t) containing the name
          of the person to be added to the membership list of the group
          or organization specified by go_name.

   Output

   status
          A pointer to the completion status.  On successful completion,
          the routine returns error_status_ok.  Otherwise, it returns an
          error.

 DESCRIPTION

   The sec_rgy_pgo_add_member() routine adds a member to the membership
   list of a  group or organization in the registry database.

   Permissions Required

   The sec_rgy_pgo_add_member() routine requires the M (Member_list)
   permission on the group or organization item specified by go_name.
   If go_name specifies a group, the routine also requires the g
   (groups) permission on the principal person_name.

 NOTES

   An account can be added to the registry database only when all its
   constituent PGO items are already in the database, and the appropriate
   membership relationships between them are established. For example, to
   establish an account with person name tom, group name writers, and
   organization name hp, all three names must exist as independent PGO
   items in the database. Furthermore, tom must be a member of writers,
   which must be a member of hp.  (See the sec_rgy_acct_add() routine to
   add an account to the registry.)

 FILES

   SYS$COMMON:[DCE$LIBRARY]PGO.IDL
                The idl file from which dce/pgo.h was derived.

 ERRORS

   sec_rgy_not_authorized
                The client program is not authorized to add members to the
                specified group or organization.

   sec_rgy_bad_domain
                An invalid domain was specified.  A member can be added
                only to a group or organization, not a person.

   sec_rgy_object_not_found
                The registry server could not find the specified name.

   sec_rgy_server_unavailable
                The DCE Registry Server is unavailable.

   error_status_ok
                The call was successful.
