ADDUSER and AUTHORIZE syntax

The Question is:

I have just created two new user accounts using the command
procedure "ADDUSER".  The accounts have been created and
seem to work as expected.  However, while creating these
accounts I seem to have inadvertantly changed the "Group
User Identifier" for all accounts within the same UIC group.
Specifically, the family name of the first account I created
is KOCHUNOV.  Upon creating the two new accounts all users
in the same UIC group as KOCHUNOV now have a user identifier
that looks like,

User Identifier:    [KOCHUNOV,xxxx]

when the SHO PROCESS command is issued.

I have been unable to find a way inside UAF to return the GROUP UIC
name back to its original value. Hopefully, you will provide me with
the mechanism.

Thanks

The Answer is:

AUTHORIZE added a "group identifier" based on the account name.  To
remove this, use the AUTHORIZE command:

	REMOVE/ID KOCHUNOV
