Modifying User Traits from the Console
You must be a superuser or user manager (umanager) to change user traits.
Use the utraits command (which requires superuser privileges) to modify a user’s traits from
the console. The syntax of the utraits command is:
utraits <name> [<option> <value>]..[+flag]..[-flag]..
For instance, to set the read rate for a user named Daniel Mitchell, whose User ID is
danielmi, the command would look something like this:
NRCS-A# utraits danielmi readrate 195
1 user records modified
NRCS-A#
To give him superuser privileges:
NRCS-A# utraits danielmi su n
1 user records modified
NRCS-A#
To take superuser privileges away from him:
NRCS-A# utraits danielmi su -
1 user records modified
NRCS-A#
The blacklist trait is a flag; it is either on or off. You grant flag traits with a plus sign, and
you take them away with a minus sign. For instance, to blacklist the user, danielmi, type
what appears in bold:
NRCS-A# utraits danielmi +b
1 user records modified
NRCS-A#
