-.Dt SETREGID 2
-.Os BSD 4.2
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm setregid
-.Nd set real and effective group ID
-.Sh SYNOPSIS
-.Fd #include <unistd.h>
-.Ft int
-.Fn setregid "gid_t rgid" "gid_t egid"
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The real and effective group ID's of the current process
-are set to the arguments.
-Unprivileged users may change the real group
-ID to the effective group ID and vice-versa; only the super-user may
-make other changes.
-.Pp
-Supplying a value of -1 for either the real or effective
-group ID forces the system to substitute the current
-ID in place of the -1 parameter.
-.Pp
-The
-.Fn setregid
-function was intended to allow swapping
-the real and effective group IDs
-in set-group-ID programs to temporarily relinquish the set-group-ID value.
-This function did not work correctly,
-and its purpose is now better served by the use of the
-.Fn setegid
-function (see
-.Xr setuid 2 ) .
-.Pp
-When setting the real and effective group IDs to the same value,
-the standard
-.Fn setgid
-function is preferred.
-.Sh RETURN VALUES
-Upon successful completion, a value of 0 is returned. Otherwise,
-a value of -1 is returned and
-.Va errno
-is set to indicate the error.
-.Sh ERRORS
-.Bl -tag -width [EPERM]
-.It Bq Er EPERM
-The current process is not the super-user and a change
-other than changing the effective group-id to the real group-id
-was specified.
-.El
-.Sh SEE ALSO

-.Xr setegid 2 ,

-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm
-function call appeared in
-.Bx 4.2
-and was dropped in
-.Bx 4.4 .
