  Modification of Rightslist Identifiers? 
 The Question is:
 
My question is regarding Rightslist identifiers.
Is is possible to change the value of an identifier?  I tried to used the
modify/id/value=identifier:%x01011 id_name command with the authorize
utility and it consistently errors indicated that the specified value is not
within the valid range.  I ran a t
est with the modify/id/value=uic:[20,121] hurdtc commmand and it does change
the uic type value in the rightslist database.  I checked the FAQ and
noticed that Steve wrote about what I am trying to do in merging to sysuaf
and rightslist files, but he didn
't mention any specific about this command.
So my question is, is the modify/id/value=identifier:%x.... a valid command
to use to change the value of an identifier?
 
Thanks

  When posting questions to the OpenVMS Wizard, please remember to

  Yes, MODIFY/IDENTIFIER is a valid command, and is appropriate for
  this particular operation.
 
  Rightslist identifier values have defined ranges, based on the
  particular type of the identifier -- you can modify identifiers,
  but only within the range specified for the identifier.

  An example of the modification of an identifier follows:
 
UAF&gt; add/identifier foobar
%UAF-I-RDBADDMSG, identifier FOOBAR value %X80010003 added to rights database
UAF&gt; modify/identifier/value=identifier=%X800199999 foobar
%UAF-I-RDBMDFYMSG, identifier FOOBAR modified
UAF&gt; remove/identifier foobar
%UAF-I-RDBREMMSG, identifier FOOBAR value %X80199999 removed from rights ...
