NAME

       pts_listmax - Displays the max user id and max group id counters

SYNOPSIS

       pts listmax [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth]
           [-force] [-help]

       pts listm [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-f] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The pts listmax command displays the values of the "max user id" and
       "max group id" counters, which the Protection Server uses to track the
       AFS user IDs (AFS UIDs) it allocates to new users or machines, and the
       AFS group IDs (AFS GIDs) it allocates to new groups, respectively. When
       an administrator next issues the pts createuser command and does not
       include the -id argument, the new user or machine receives an AFS UID
       one greater than the "max user id" counter, and when a user issues the
       pts creategroup command and does not include the -id argument, the new
       group receives an AFS UID one less (more negative) than the "max group
       id" counter.

       To reset one or both counters, members of the system:administrators
       group can issue the pts setmax command.

OPTIONS

       -cell <cell name>
           Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
           pts(1).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more
           details, see pts(1).

       -localauth
           Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local
           /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. Do not combine this flag with the
           -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see pts(1).

       -force
           Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when
           errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at
           the first error.

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
           are ignored.

OUTPUT

       The command displays the counters in the following format:

          Max user id is <user_counter> and max group id is <group_counter>.

EXAMPLES

       The following example displays the output of this command:

          % pts listmax
          Max user name is 1271 and max group id is -382.
