BOS_ADDUSER(8) AFS Command Reference BOS_ADDUSER(8)NAMEbos_adduser - Adds a privileged user to the UserList file
SYNOPSIS
bos adduser -server <machine name> -user <user names>+
[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]
bos addu -s <machine name> -u <user names>+
[-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The bos adduser command adds each user name specified with the -user
argument to the /usr/afs/etc/UserList file on the machine named by the
-server argument. It is the issuer's responsibility to verify that an
entry for the user exists in the Authentication and Protection
Databases.
OPTIONS-server <machine name>
Indicates the server machine on which to change the
/usr/afs/etc/UserList file. Identify the machine by IP address or
its host name (either fully-qualified or abbreviated
unambiguously). For details, see bos(8).
In cells that use the Update Server to distribute the contents of
the /usr/afs/etc directory, it is conventional to specify only the
system control machine as a value for the -server argument.
Otherwise, repeat the command for each file server machine. For
further discussion, see bos(8).
-user <user names>+
Specifies each user name to insert into the /usr/afs/etc/UserList
file.
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. Do not combine this
argument with the -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. Do not
combine this flag with the -localauth flag. For more details, see
bos(8).
-localauth
Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
/usr/afs/etc/KeyFile file. The bos command interpreter presents the
ticket to the BOS Server during mutual authentication. Do not
combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more
details, see bos(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
EXAMPLES
The following command adds the user names "pat" and "smith" to the
/usr/afs/etc/UserList file on the machine "fs1.abc.com" (the system
control machine).
% bos adduser -server fs1.abc.com -user pat smith
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must be listed in the /usr/afs/etc/UserList file on the
machine named by the -server argument, or must be logged onto a server
machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is
included.
