-noauth means "Make the connection to the ptserver without any authentication at all". It will only work if the ptserver is running in NoAuth mode (which you do by starting the bosserver with the -noauth flag). You're getting this error because, in normal operation, the anonymous user doesn't have permission to create users or groups. > root@intranet:~# aklog -d > Authenticating to cell in-put.de (server intranet.in-put.de). > Trying to authenticate to user's realm IN-PUT.DE. > Getting tickets: afs/in-put...@in-put.de > Using Kerberos V5 ticket natively > Identical tokens already exist; skipping. > root@intranet:~# tokens > > Tokens held by the Cache Manager: > > User's (AFS ID 1) tokens for a...@in-put.de [Expires Apr 23 23:31] > --End of list-- > > Why am I not allowed to add a new user or group? Does it work if you try these commands without the -noauth flag?
