+<P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
+<P>The <B>uss bulk</B> command executes the <B>uss</B> commands listed
+in the <B>bulk input file</B> specified with the <B>-file</B>
+argument. If the bulk input file includes <B>add</B> instructions
+that reference a template file, then the <B>-template</B> argument is
+required.
+<P>To create a single account, use the <B>uss add</B> command. To
+delete one or more accounts, use the <B>uss delete</B> command.
+<P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
+<DL>
+<P><DT><B>-file
+</B><DD>Specifies the pathname of the bulk input file. Partial pathnames
+are interpreted relative to the current working directory. For details
+on the file's format, see <A HREF="auarf054.htm#HDRUSSBULKINPUT">uss Bulk Input File</A>.
+<P><DT><B>-template
+</B><DD>Specifies the pathname of the template file for any <B>uss add</B>
+commands that appear in the bulk input file. Partial pathnames are
+interpreted relative to the current working directory. For details on
+the file's format, see <A HREF="auarf055.htm#HDRUSSFILE">uss Template File</A>.
+<P><DT><B>-verbose
+</B><DD>Produces on the standard output stream a detailed trace of the
+command's execution. If this argument is omitted, only warnings
+and error messages appear.
+<P><DT><B>-cell
+</B><DD>Specifies the cell in which to run the command. For more details,
+see the introductory <B>uss</B> reference page.
+<P><DT><B>-admin
+</B><DD>Specifies the AFS user name under which to establish authenticated
+connections to the AFS server processes that maintain the various components
+of a user account. For more details, see the introductory
+<B>uss</B> reference page.
+<P><DT><B>-dryrun
+</B><DD>Reports actions that the command interpreter needs to perform while
+executing the command, without actually performing them. For more
+details, see the introductory <B>uss</B> reference page.
+<P><DT><B>-skipauth
+</B><DD>Prevents authentication with the AFS Authentication Server, allowing a
+site using Kerberos to substitute that form of authentication.
+<P><DT><B>-overwrite
+</B><DD>Overwrites any directories, files and links that exist in the file system
+and for which there are also <B>D</B>, <B>E</B>, <B>F</B>,
+<B>L</B>, or <B>S</B> instructions in a template file referenced by an
+<B>add</B> instruction in the bulk input file. If this flag is
+omitted, the command interpreter prompts, once for each <B>add</B>
+instruction in the bulk input file, for confirmation that it should overwrite
+such elements. Do not include this flag if the bulk input file does not
+contain <B>add</B> instructions.
+<P><DT><B>-pwexpires
+</B><DD>Sets the number of days after a user's password is changed that it
+remains valid, for each user named by an <B>add</B> instruction in the
+bulk input file. Provide an integer from the range <B>1</B> through
+<B>254</B> to specify the number of days until expiration, or the value
+<B>0</B> to indicate that the password never expires (the default).
+<P>When the password becomes invalid (expires), the user is unable to
+authenticate, but has 30 more days in which to issue the <B>kpasswd</B>
+command to change the password (after that, only an administrator can change
+it).
+<P><DT><B>-pipe
+</B><DD>Suppresses the Authentication Server's prompt for the password of the
+issuer or the user named by the <B>-admin</B> argument (the Authentication
+Server always separately authenticates the creator of an entry in the
+Authentication Database). Instead, the command interpreter accepts the
+password via the standard input stream, as piped in from another
+program. This enables the <B>uss bulk</B> command to run as part of
+unattended batch jobs.
+<P><DT><B>-help
+</B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
+are ignored.
+</DL>
+<P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
+<P>The following example command executes the instructions in the bulk input
+file called <B>new_students</B>, which includes <B>add</B>
+instructions that refer to the template file
+<B>student.template</B>. Both files reside in the current
+working directory.
+<PRE> % <B>uss bulk new_students student.template</B>
+
+</PRE>
+<P><STRONG>Privilege Required</STRONG>
+<P>The issuer (or the user named by the <B>-admin</B> argument) must have
+the privileges necessary to run the commands that correspond to instructions
+in the bulk input file.
