<P><STRONG>Purpose</STRONG>
|
|
<P>Introduction to the <B>uss</B> command suite
|
|
<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
|
|
<P>The commands in the <B>uss</B> command suite help administrators to
|
|
create AFS user accounts more easily and efficiently. If <B>uss</B>
|
|
commands are not used, creating an account requires issuing at least six
|
|
separate commands to five different AFS servers.
|
|
<P>There are three main commands in the suite:
|
|
<UL>
|
|
<P><LI>The <B>uss add</B> command creates a single complete user account,
|
|
based on command line arguments and instructions in a template file.
|
|
<P><LI>The <B>uss bulk</B> command creates multiple complete accounts at
|
|
once, based on command line arguments, instructions in a template file and a
|
|
bulk input file.
|
|
<P><LI>the <B>uss delete</B> command removes most parts of a user
|
|
account.
|
|
</UL>
|
|
<P>To obtain help, issue the <B>uss apropos</B> and <B>uss help</B>
|
|
commands.
|
|
<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
|
|
<P>The following arguments and flags are available on many commands in the
|
|
<B>uss</B> suite. The reference page for each command also lists
|
|
them, but they are described here in greater detail.
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<P><DT><B>-admin <<VAR>administrator to authenticate</VAR>>
|
|
</B><DD>Specifies the AFS user name under which to establish a connection to the
|
|
AFS server processes that administer the various parts of a user
|
|
account. If it is omitted, the connection is established under the
|
|
issuer's effective user ID (his or her identity in the local file
|
|
system). Even when this argument is included, UNIX commands that run
|
|
during the <B>uss</B> operation (for instance, the UNIX
|
|
<B>/etc/chown</B> command) run under the effective user ID.
|
|
<P><DT><B>-cell <<VAR>cell name</VAR>>
|
|
</B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. It is acceptable to
|
|
abbreviate the cell name to the shortest form that distinguishes it from the
|
|
other entries in the <B>/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</B> file on the local
|
|
machine. If the <B>-cell</B> argument is omitted, the command
|
|
interpreter determines the name of the local cell by reading the following in
|
|
order:
|
|
<OL TYPE=1>
|
|
<P><LI>The value of the AFSCELL environment variable
|
|
<P><LI>The local <B>/usr/vice/etc/ThisCell</B> file
|
|
</OL>
|
|
<P><DT><B>-dryrun
|
|
</B><DD>Reports actions that the command interpreter needs to perform when
|
|
executing the <B>uss</B> operation, without actually performing
|
|
them. Include this flag to verify that the command produces the desired
|
|
account configuration. Combine it with the <B>-verbose</B> flag to
|
|
yield even more detailed information. Note that the output does not
|
|
necessarily reveal all possible problems that can prevent successful execution
|
|
of the command, especially those that result from transient server or network
|
|
outages.
|
|
<P><DT><B>-help
|
|
</B><DD>Prints a command's online help message on the standard output
|
|
stream. Do not combine this flag with any of the command's other
|
|
options; when it is provided, the command interpreter ignores all other
|
|
options, and only prints the help message.
|
|
<P><DT><B>-skipauth
|
|
</B><DD>Bypasses mutual authentication with the AFS Authentication Server,
|
|
allowing a site that uses Kerberos instead of the AFS Authentication Server to
|
|
substitute that form of authentication.
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
|
|
<P>The issuer of a <B>uss</B> command must have all the rights required
|
|
for performing the equivalent actions individually. See each
|
|
<B>uss</B> command's reference page.
