NAME
fs_getcellstatus - Reports whether setuid programs are honored in a cell SYNOPSIS
fs getcellstatus -cell <cell name>+ [-help] fs getce -c <cell name>+ [-h] DESCRIPTION
The fs getcellstatus command reports whether the Cache Manager allows programs fetched from each specified cell to run with setuid permission. To set a cell's setuid status, use the fs setcell command; fs_setcell(1) fully describes how AFS treats setuid programs. OPTIONS
-cell <cell name>+ Names each cell for which to report setuid status. Provide the fully qualified domain name, or a shortened form that disambiguates it from the other cells listed in the local /etc/openafs/CellServDB file. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. OUTPUT
The output reports one of the following two values as appropriate: Cell <cell> status: setuid allowed Cell <cell> status: no setuid allowed EXAMPLES
The following example indicates that programs from the cell "abc.com" are not allowed to run with setuid permission. % fs getcellstatus abc.com Cell abc.com status: no setuid allowed PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
