kas_help - Displays help for kas commands SYNOPSIS
kas help [-topic <help string>+] [-help] kas h [-t <help string>+] [-h] DESCRIPTION
The kas help command displays the complete online help entry (short description and syntax statement) for each command operation code specified by the -topic argument. If the -topic argument is omitted, the output includes the first line (name and short description) of the online help entry for every kas command. To list every kas command whose name or short description includes a specified keyword, use the kas apropos command. OPTIONS
-topic <help string>+ Indicates each command for which to display the complete online help entry. Omit the kas part of the command name, providing only the operation code (for example, specify setpassword, not kas setpassword). If this argument is omitted, the output briefly describes every kas command. -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. OUTPUT
The online help entry for each kas command consists of the following two or three lines: o The first line names the command and briefly describes its function. o The second line lists aliases for the command, if any. o The final line, which begins with the string "Usage", lists the command's options in the prescribed order. Online help entries use the same symbols (for example, brackets) as the reference pages in this document. EXAMPLES
The following command displays the online help entry for the kas setpassword command: % kas help setpassword kas setpassword: set a user's password aliases: sp Usage: kas setpassword -name <name of user> [-new_password <new password>] [-kvno <key version number>] [-admin_username <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-password_for_admin <password>] [-cell <cell name>] [-servers <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-help] PRIVILEGE REQUIRED

KAS_DELETE(8) AFS Command Reference KAS_DELETE(8) NAME
kas_delete - Deletes an entry from the Authentication Database SYNOPSIS
kas delete -name <name of user> [-admin_username <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-password_for_admin <admin password>] [-cell <cell name>] [-servers <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-noauth] [-help] kas d -na <name of user> [-a <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>] [-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-no] [-h] kas rm -na <name of user> [-a <admin principal to use for authentication>] [-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>] [-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-no] [-h] DESCRIPTION
The kas delete command removes from the Authentication Database the user entry named by the -name argument. The indicated user becomes unable to log in, or the indicated server becomes unreachable (because the Authentication Server's Ticket Granting Service module no longer has a key with which to seal tickets for the server). OPTIONS
-name <name of user> Names the Authentication Database entry to delete. -admin_username <admin principal> Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the Authentication Server for execution of the command. For more details, see kas(8). -password_for_admin <admin password> Specifies the password of the command's issuer. If it is omitted (as recommended), the kas command interpreter prompts for it and does not echo it visibly. For more details, see kas(8). -cell <cell name> Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see kas(8). -servers <authentication servers>+ Names each machine running an Authentication Server with which to establish a connection. For more details, see kas(8). -noauth Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. For more details, see kas(8). -help Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored. EXAMPLES
The following example shows the administrative user "admin" entering interactive mode to delete three accounts. % kas Password for admin: ka> delete smith ka> delete pat ka> delete terry PRIVILEGE REQUIRED
The issuer must have the "ADMIN" flag set on his or her Authentication Database entry. SEE ALSO
