NAME
       au - Activate user account

SYNOPSIS
       au [ -x ] [ -h host ] [ -p port ] nu | cp | cu | du

DESCRIPTION
       au  is used by an administrator to add, delete, or change user informa‐
       tion. au will first prompt for the administrators Coda  user  name  and
       password.  It  will  then  connect to the auth2 daemon on the server to
       perform the requested operation.

       au supports the following options:

       -x     Turns on debugging.

       -h     Attach to host to do the authentication. host should be the  SCM
	      server.

       -p     port to bind to. The default port is codaauth2 (370/udp).

       nu     New  user.  The  nu  option  tells the auth2 daemon to add a new
	      password entry to the Coda password database.

       cp     Change password. Use this to change a users vice password.

       cu     Change user information. Use this to change password  and	 other
	      user information.

       du     Delete  user. The du option tells the auth2 daemon to remove the
	      password from the Coda password database, thereby disabling  the
	      account.

DIAGNOSTICS
       You must be a Coda system administrator to ru au.

BUGS
       au echos new passwords to the terminal as they are typed in.
