[OpenAFS] UserAuthenticate: ptserver: user or group desnt exist

[Rogelio Bazan Reyes]

thanx,

i get:
>$pts examine user1
>pts: User or group doesnt exist so couldnt look up id for user1
how can i check  if the entry exists in the PTServer database? (Sorry about 
the question, but i´m a new user of afs).

thanx a lot for answering.
