chdgrp

chdgrp (change default group) is the UNIX command that permits you to change the funding source (project) for your computer account. Executing chdgrp from my account yields:

     copland.udel.edu% chdgrp
     Project Title ............. Remaining Valid on hosts
     4000   U. OF D. E-MAIL              48.54       brahms
     0522   PHYSNET                    1732.98       brahms
     1302   PHOTON LOCALIZATION         999.76       brahms
     1187   FACULTY DEVELOPMENT         100.00       brahms
     1209   SCEN102                     500.00       brahms
     2146   SCEN103-082                 500.00       brahms 

     default group is currently 1302

Your default group is probably 4000, issued to all students at UD. You may change at any time to the SCEN103 project by executing the following command from your account:

     strauss.udel.edu% newgrp 2146

You may "permanently" change to the SCEN103 project for the remainder of the semester by exectuting:

     strauss.udel.edu% chdgrp 2146

To change back:

     strauss.udel.edu% chdgrp 4000

Your initial allotment is $50 from this project; if you need more during the semester, just let me know. You should have also received an additional 2Mb disk space allocation. The SCEN103-082 project will be inactivated two weeks after the semester ends.
