NAME

       bos_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 /etc/openafs/server/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
           /etc/openafs/server/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 /etc/openafs/server 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
           /etc/openafs/server/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
           /etc/openafs/server/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
       /etc/openafs/server/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 /etc/openafs/server/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.
