NAME

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

SYNOPSIS

       pts listmax [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth]
           [-force] [-help] [-auth] [-encrypt]
           [-config <config directory>]

       pts listm [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-f] [-h]
           [-a] [-e] [-co <config directory>]

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

       -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 <config directory>
           Use an alternate config directory. For more details, see pts(1).

       -encrypt
           Encrypts 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/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).

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.
