 NAME    [Toc]    [Back]
      add directory - Adds a value to a modifiable, set-valued attribute
      (including application-defined attributes) of a directory

 SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]
      cdscp add directory directory-name attribute-name = attribute-value


 ARGUMENTS    [Toc]    [Back]
      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 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.  See the cds_attributes file for the
                list of attributes and corresponding data types that your
                application uses.  If you enter a byte data type, you must
                enter an even number of digits in length.  You can only
                enter pairs of hexadecimal values for user-defined
                attributes.


 DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]
      The add directory command adds a value to a modifiable, set-valued
      attribute (including application-defined attributes) of a directory.
      If the attribute does not exist, this command creates it.  Usually,
      this task is performed through the client application.  See the DCE
      Administration Guide for more information about attributes.

    Privilege Required    [Toc]    [Back]
      You must have write permission to the directory.

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

 EXAMPLE    [Toc]    [Back]
      To add the value ontario to the attribute myname of a directory named
      /.:/sales, read the cds_attributes file to verify that the attribute
      shown in the following display exists:
