PROGRAM:
NAME
pts_delete - Deletes a Protection Database entry
SYNOPSIS
pts delete -nameorid <user or group name or id>+
[-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth]
[-force] [-help]
pts d -na <user or group name or id>+
[-c <cell name>] [-no] [-l] [-f] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The pts delete command removes each entry specified by the -nameorid argument from the
Protection Database. Deleting entries affects other parts of the system in various ways:
· Deleted users and groups still appear on access control lists (ACLs), but are listed
by AFS UID or GID rather than by name, because there is no longer an associated name
to which to translate the ID. To remove these obsolete entries from ACLs, use the fs
cleanacl command.
· Deleting a user or machine's entry removes it from the membership list of any group to
which it belonged.
· Deleting a group entry removes it from the membership list of any user or machine
entry that belonged to the group, and also increments the group-creation quota of the
group's creator by one, even if the creator no longer owns the group.
To remove a user or machine from a group without actually deleting the entry, use the pts
removeuser command.
OPTIONS
-nameorid <user or group name or ID>+
Specifies the name or AFS UID of each user, the name or AFS GID of each group, or the
IP address (complete or wildcard-style) or AFS UID of each machine entry to delete. It
is acceptable to mix users, machines, and groups on the same command line, as well as
names (IP addresses for machines) and IDs. Precede the GID of each group with a hyphen
to indicate that it is negative.
-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 deletes the user entries "pat" and "terry":
% pts delete pat terry
The following example deletes the Protection Database entry of the group with AFS GID
-215.
% pts delete -215
PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must belong to the system:administrators group to delete user and machine
entries. To delete group entries, the issuer must either own the group or belong to the
system:administrators group.
