NAME

       bos_removeuser - Removes a privileged user from the UserList file

SYNOPSIS

       bos removeuser -server <machine name> -user <user names>+
           [-cell <cell name>] [-noauth] [-localauth] [-help]

       bos removeu -s <machine name> -u <user names>+
           [-c <cell name>] [-n] [-l] [-h]

DESCRIPTION

       The bos removeuser command removes each user name specified with the -user argument from the
       /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named by the -server argument.

OPTIONS

       -server <machine name>
           Indicates  the  server machine on which to change the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file. Identify the
           machine by IP address or its host name (either fully-qualified  or  abbreviated  unambiguously).  For
           details, see bos(8).

           In  cells that use the Update Server to distribute the contents of the /etc/openafs/server directory,
           it is conventional to specify only the system control machine as a value for  the  -server  argument.
           Otherwise, repeat the command for each file server machine. For further discussion, see bos(8).

       -user <user names>+
           Specifies each user name to remove.

       -cell <cell name>
           Names  the  cell  in which to run the command. Do not combine this argument with the -localauth flag.
           For more details, see bos(8).

       -noauth
           Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer.  Do  not  combine  this  flag  with  the
           -localauth flag. For more details, see bos(8).

       -localauth
           Constructs  a  server  ticket  using  a  key from the local /etc/openafs/server/KeyFile file. The bos
           command interpreter presents the ticket to the  BOS  Server  during  mutual  authentication.  Do  not
           combine this flag with the -cell or -noauth options. For more details, see bos(8).

       -help
           Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

EXAMPLES

       The  following  example  removes the users "pat" and "jones" from the UserList file on the system control
       machine "fs1.abc.com".

          % bos removeuser -server fs1.abc.com -user pat jones

PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

       The issuer must be listed in the /etc/openafs/server/UserList file on the machine named  by  the  -server
       argument, or must be logged onto a server machine as the local superuser "root" if the -localauth flag is
       included.
