NAME


pts_adduser - Adds a user or machine to a Protection Database group

SYNOPSIS


pts adduser -user <user name>+ -group <group name>+
[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-force] [-help]

pts ad -u <user name>+ -g <group name>+
[-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-f] [-h]

DESCRIPTION


The pts adduser command adds each user or machine entry named by the -user argument as a
member of each group named by the -group argument.

To remove members of a group, use the pts removeuser command. To list the groups to which
a user or machine belongs, or the members of a specified group, use the pts membership
command.

CAUTIONS


After being added as a group member, a currently authenticated user must reauthenticate
(for example, by issuing the aklog or klog.krb5 commands) to obtain permissions granted to
the group on an access control list (ACL).

OPTIONS


-user <user name>+
Specifies the name of each user or machine entry to add to each group named by the
-group argument. The name of a machine entry resembles an IP address and can use the
wildcard notation described on the pts createuser reference page. The user or machine
entry must already exist in the Protection Database.

-group <group name>+
Specifies the complete name (including the owner prefix if applicable) of each group
to which to add members. The group entry must already exist in the Protection
Database.

-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. 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.

-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).

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

EXAMPLES


The following example adds user smith to the group system:administrators.

% pts adduser -user smith -group system:administrators

The following example adds users "jones", "terry", and pat to the smith:colleagues group.

% pts adduser -user jones terry pat -group smith:colleagues

The following example adds the machine entries in the ABC Corporation subnet to the group
"bin-prot". Because of the IP address range of the ABC Corporation subnet, the system
administrator was able to group the machines into three machine entries (using the
wildcard notation discussed on the pts createuser reference page).

% pts adduser -user 138.255.0.0 192.12.105.0 192.12.106.0 -group bin-prot

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED


The required privilege depends on the setting of the fourth privacy flag in the Protection
Database entry for each group named by the -group argument (use the pts examine command to
display the flags):

· If it is the hyphen, only the group's owner and members of the system:administrators
group can add members.

· If it is lowercase "a", current members of the group can add new members.

· If it is uppercase "A", anyone who can access the cell's database server machines can
add new members.
