The xfeditdb utility lets you add, view, and delete features, user/host groups, and users/hosts within groups. The data is stored in the SQLite database.

Be careful that you enter user and group names correctly when using xfeditdb, or you will get unwanted results. For example, if you have two group names that are similar, double-check that the group name is typed correctly before proceeding with adding data to or deleting data from the group.

The syntax for the xfeditdb command is:
xfeditdb option

The xfeditdb options are described below.

-listtable database.db table
 

List (view) a table in the specified database.

Use one of the following options to specify the table to view:

features
List all features in the database.

user_groups
List all user groups in the database.

host_groups
List all host groups in the database.

users_groups
List users included in the groups in the database. The list shows the group name followed by the user name.

hosts_groups
List hosts included in the groups in the database. The list shows the group name followed by the host name.

For example, to see a list of all users that belong to groups in the autocad.db database, you would type:
xfeditdb – listtable autocad.db users_groups

-addtable/-deletetable database.db features/user_groups/host_groups entry
or
-addtable/-deletetable database.db users_groups/hosts_groups entry group

Add data to or delete data from a table in the specified database.

Use one of the following options to specify the data to add/delete:

features entry
Add/delete the specified feature, where entry is the feature name.

host_groups entry

Add/delete the specified user to the specified group, where entry is the user name and group is the group name.

hosts_groups entry group

For example, to add a new user group named "my_user_group" to the autocad.db database, you would type:
