Good catch. It was meant to read "...was added after 'cell'".
You're very correct, hopefully what went into CVS was almost as
correct. We ended up with
pts chown [-name] user/group [-owner] owner [-cell cellname] [-host server] [-noauth]
which should match the other commands that got a 'host' arg back in the good ol'
days.
Thanks
