DESCRIPTION

       The pts setfields command sets the group-creation quota, the privacy flags, or both,
       associated with each user, machine, or group entry specified by the -nameorid argument.

       To examine the current quota and privacy flags, use the pts examine command.

CAUTIONS

       Changing a machine or group's group-creation quota is allowed, but not recommended. The
       concept is meaningless for machines and groups, because it is impossible to authenticate
       as a group or machine.

       Similarly, some privacy flag settings do not have a sensible interpretation. "OPTIONS"
       specifies the appropriate settings.

OPTIONS

       -nameorid <user or group name or id>+
           Specifies the name or AFS UID of each user, the IP address (complete or wildcard-
           style) of each machine, or the name or AFS GID of each machine for which to set
           privacy flags or group-creation quota. 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.

       -access <privacy flags>
           Specifies the privacy flags to apply to each entry. Provide a string of five
           characters, one for each of the permissions. If this option is omitted, the current
           setting remains unchanged.

           Set each flag to achieve the desired combination of permissions. If the following list
           does not mention a certain setting, it is not acceptable. For further discussion of
           the privacy flags, see pts_examine(1).

           •   The first flag determines who can use the pts examine command to display
               information from a user, machine or group's Protection Database entry.

               •   Set it to lowercase "s" to permit the members of the system:administrators
                   group to display a user, machine, or group entry, the associated user to
                   display a user entry, and the owner or members of a group to display the group
                   entry.

               •   Set it to uppercase "S" to permit anyone who can access the cell's database
                   server machines to display a user, machine, or group entry.

           •   The second flag determines who can use the pts listowned command to list the
               groups that a user or group owns.

               •   Set it to the hyphen ("-") to permit the members of the system:administrators
                   group and a user to list the groups he or she owns, or to permit the members
                   of the system:administrators group and a group's owner to list the groups that
                   a group owns.

               •   Set it to uppercase letter "O" to permit anyone who can access the cell's
                   database server machines to list the groups owned by a machine or group entry.

           •   The third flag determines who can use the pts membership command to list the
               groups to which a user or machine belongs, or the users and machines that belong
               to a group.

               •   Set it to the hyphen ("-") to permit the members of the system:administrators
                   group and a user to list the groups he or she belongs to, to permit the
                   members of the system:administrators group to list the groups a machine
                   belongs to, or to permit the members of the system:administrators group and a
                   group's owner to list the users and machines that belong to it.

               •   Set it to lowercase "m" to permit members of a group to list the other
                   members. (For user and machine entries, this setting is equivalent to the
                   hyphen.)

               •   Set it to uppercase "M" to permit anyone who can access the cell's database
                   server machines to list membership information for a user, machine or group.

           •   The fourth flag determines who can use the pts adduser command to add users and
               machines as members of a group. This flag has no sensible interpretation for user
               and machine entries, but must be set nonetheless, preferably to the hyphen.

               •   Set it to the hyphen ("-") to permit the members of the system:administrators
                   group and the owner of the group to add members.

               •   Set it to lowercase "a" to permit members of a group to add other members.

               •   Set it to uppercase "A" to permit anyone who can access the cell's database
                   server machines to add members to a group.

           •   The fifth flag determines who can use the pts removeuser command to remove users
               and machines from membership in a group. This flag has no sensible interpretation
               for user and machine entries, but must be set nonetheless, preferably to the
               hyphen.

               •   Set it to the hyphen ("-") to permit the members of the system:administrators
                   group and the owner of the group to remove members.

               •   Set it to lowercase "r" to permit members of a group to remove other members.

       -groupquota <group creation quota>
           Specifies the number of additional groups a user can create (it does not matter how
           many he or she has created already). Do not include this argument for a group or
           machine 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 <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).

EXAMPLES

       The following example changes the privacy flags on the group "operators", retaining the
       default values of the first, second and third flags, but setting the fourth and fifth
       flags to enable the group's members to add and remove other members.

          % pts setfields -nameorid operators -access S-Mar

       The following example changes the privacy flags and sets group quota on the user entry
       "admin". It retains the default values of the first, fourth, and fifth flags, but sets the
       second and third flags, to enable anyone to list the groups that "admin" owns and belongs
       to.  Users authenticated as "admin" can create an additional 50 groups.

          % pts setfields -nameorid admin -access SOM-- -groupquota 50

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       To edit group entries or set the privacy flags on any type of entry, the issuer must own
       the entry or belong to the system:administrators group. To set group-creation quota on a
       user entry, the issuer must belong to the system:administrators group.
