-<P><STRONG>Purpose</STRONG>
-<P>Introduction to the <B>uss</B> command suite
-<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
-<P>The commands in the <B>uss</B> command suite help administrators to
-create AFS user accounts more easily and efficiently. If <B>uss</B>
-commands are not used, creating an account requires issuing at least six
-separate commands to five different AFS servers.
-<P>There are three main commands in the suite:
-<UL>
-<P><LI>The <B>uss add</B> command creates a single complete user account,
-based on command line arguments and instructions in a template file.
-<P><LI>The <B>uss bulk</B> command creates multiple complete accounts at
-once, based on command line arguments, instructions in a template file and a
-bulk input file.
-<P><LI>the <B>uss delete</B> command removes most parts of a user
-account.
-</UL>
-<P>To obtain help, issue the <B>uss apropos</B> and <B>uss help</B>
-commands.
-<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
-<P>The following arguments and flags are available on many commands in the
-<B>uss</B> suite. The reference page for each command also lists
-them, but they are described here in greater detail.
-<DL>
-<P><DT><B>-admin <<VAR>administrator to authenticate</VAR>>
-</B><DD>Specifies the AFS user name under which to establish a connection to the
-AFS server processes that administer the various parts of a user
-account. If it is omitted, the connection is established under the
-issuer's effective user ID (his or her identity in the local file
-system). Even when this argument is included, UNIX commands that run
-during the <B>uss</B> operation (for instance, the UNIX
-<B>/etc/chown</B> command) run under the effective user ID.
-<P><DT><B>-cell <<VAR>cell name</VAR>>
-</B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. It is acceptable to
-abbreviate the cell name to the shortest form that distinguishes it from the
-other entries in the <B>/usr/vice/etc/CellServDB</B> file on the local
-machine. If the <B>-cell</B> argument is omitted, the command
-interpreter determines the name of the local cell by reading the following in
-order:
-<OL TYPE=1>
-<P><LI>The value of the AFSCELL environment variable
-<P><LI>The local <B>/usr/vice/etc/ThisCell</B> file
-</OL>
-<P><DT><B>-dryrun
-</B><DD>Reports actions that the command interpreter needs to perform when
-executing the <B>uss</B> operation, without actually performing
-them. Include this flag to verify that the command produces the desired
-account configuration. Combine it with the <B>-verbose</B> flag to
-yield even more detailed information. Note that the output does not
-necessarily reveal all possible problems that can prevent successful execution
-of the command, especially those that result from transient server or network
-outages.
-<P><DT><B>-help
-</B><DD>Prints a command's online help message on the standard output
-stream. Do not combine this flag with any of the command's other
-options; when it is provided, the command interpreter ignores all other
-options, and only prints the help message.
-<P><DT><B>-skipauth
-</B><DD>Bypasses mutual authentication with the AFS Authentication Server,
-allowing a site that uses Kerberos instead of the AFS Authentication Server to
-substitute that form of authentication.
-</DL>
-<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
-<P>The issuer of a <B>uss</B> command must have all the rights required
-for performing the equivalent actions individually. See each
-<B>uss</B> command's reference page.
