NAME

pts_setfields - Sets privacy flags or quota for a Protection Service entry

SYNOPSIS

pts setfields -nameorid <user or group name or id>+ [-groupquota <set limit on group creation>] [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-force] [-help] [-auth] [-encrypt [<yes|no>]] [-config <configuration file>]

DESCRIPTION

The pts setfields command sets the group-creation quota, associated with each user, machine, network or group entry specified by the -nameorid argument. Historically, pts setfields was also used to set the privacy fields for these entries, but this use is deprecated. The pts_setaccess(1) command is the recommended utility for manipulating privacy fields.

To examine the current quota, use the pts_examine(1) 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. 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.

-groupquota <group creation quota>

Specifies the number of additional groups an authenticated user or machine can create (it does not matter how many he or she has created already). Do not include this argument for a group or network entry.

-auth

Use the calling user's tokens to communicate with the Protection Server. For more details, see pts(1).

-cell <cell name>

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

-config <configuration file>

Sets the location of the configuration file to be used. The default file is /etc/yfs/yfs-client.conf. For more details, see pts(1).

-encrypt [<yes|no>]

Enables or disables encryption for any communication with the Protection Server. 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/yfs/server/KeyFileExt 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).

CAUTIONS

Changing the group-creation quota of a network or a group is permitted but not recommended. The concept is meaningless for networks and groups because it is impossible to authenticate as a network or group.

EXAMPLES

The following example sets group quota on the user entry admin. Users authenticated as admin can create an additional 50 groups.

   % pts setfields -nameorid admin -groupquota 50

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

To set group-creation quota on a user entry, the issuer must belong to the system:administrators group.

NOTES

Setting the privacy and authorization flags for entries should be done with the pts_setaccess(1) command, which replaces the OpenAFS pts setfields -access option.
