=head1 DESCRIPTION The B command unlocks the Authentication Database entry named by the B<-name> argument. An entry becomes locked when the user exceeds the limit on failed authentication attempts, generally by providing the wrong password to either an AFS-modified login utility or the B command. Use the B command to set the limit and the lockout time, and the B command to examine the settings. To unlock all locked user accounts at once, shutdown the B process on every database server machine, and remove the F file from each one. The B process recreates the file as it restarts. =head1 OPTIONS =over 4 =item B<-name> > Names the Authentication Database entry to unlock. =item B<-admin_username> > Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the Authentication Server for execution of the command.
