# pts\_quit(1)

Exit from pts interactive mode

## NAME

pts\_quit - Exit from pts interactive mode

## SYNOPSIS

**pts quit** \[**-cell**\] \<*cell name*\> \[**-noauth**\] \[**-localauth**\] \
     \[**-force**\] \[**-help**\] \[**-auth**\] \[**-encrypt**\]\
     \[**-config** \<*config directory*\>\]

**pts q** \[**-c**\] \<*cell name*\> \[**-n**\] \[**-l**\] \[**-f**\] \[**-h**\]\
     \[**-a**\] \[**-e**\] \[**-co** \<*config directory*\>\]

## DESCRIPTION

The **pts quit** command exits from **pts interactive** mode.  The command can be run from the command line or interactively, but on the command line it does nothing and is therefore of questionable utility.

## CAUTIONS

Prior to OpenAFS 1.4.5 and OpenAFS 1.5.23, the **pts quit** command was only available on Unix or Linux and when OpenAFS was compiled with the supergroups option (disabled by default).  As of OpenAFS 1.4.5 and 1.5.23, it is always available.

## OPTIONS

Although they have no effect, **pts quit** takes the following standard **pts** options:

- **-auth**

  Use the calling user's tokens to communicate with the Protection Server. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

- **-cell** \<*cell name*\>

  Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

- **-config** \<*config directory*\>

  Use an alternate config directory. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

- **-encrypt**

  Encrypts any communication with the Protection Server. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

- **-force**

  Enables the command to continue executing as far as possible when errors or other problems occur, rather than halting execution at the first error.

- **-help**

  Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options are ignored.

- **-localauth**

  Constructs a server ticket using a key from the local */etc/openafs/server/KeyFile* file. Do not combine this flag with the **-cell**  or **-noauth** options. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

- **-noauth**

  Assigns the unprivileged identity anonymous to the issuer. For more details, see [**pts**(1)](/pts/1.md).

## OUTPUT

This command produces no output.

## EXAMPLES

Here is an example of a **pts interactive** session:

```
   % pts interactive
   pts> quit
   %
```
