He every one,
I need help to solved this issue
I am following bellow link to afs server

http://docs.openafs.org/QuickStartUnix/ch02s15.html

I believed i followed every steps
but when i am trying to create user

 pts createuser -name admin -noauth
pts: Permission denied ; unable to create user admin


i cant create user admin
What i am missing ??

I was comparing with another website.. where i saw few commands are
different then openafs website
example :
http://redflo.de/tiki-index.php?page=Configure+AFS+Server

bos create dopey.redflo.de buserver simple /usr/lib64/openafs/buserver
-cell redflo.de -noauth
bos create dopey.redflo.de ptserver simple /usr/lib64/openafs/ptserver
-cell redflo.de -noauth
bos create dopey.redflo.de vlserver simple /usr/lib64/openafs/vlserver
-cell redflo.de -noauth

but openafs documentation say :

**   # ./bos create <machine name> buserver simple
/usr/afs/bin/buserver  -noauth
# ./bos create <machine name> ptserver simple /usr/afs/bin/ptserver -noauth

# ./bos create <machine name> vlserver simple /usr/afs/bin/vlserver -noauth


So openafs website does not use -cell cellname paremeter ..

anyway .. i know what ever in openafs website have to true.

so can any one please tel me what i am doing wrong ??
thanks for your help and patiences

Fosiul
