The command is:

# hcs3 useraccess <-d | -e no_of_days>

The command enables hcs3 access for non-root (non-Administrator) users. Access can be enabled for a specific number of days (-e). If zero days are specified, then the access is enabled forever until specifically revoked using the -d option.

The root user can disable non-root access using the -d option.

If non-root user access is enabled, regular users can use hcs3 to store encrypted files in S3. They can create / remove buckets just as the root user can.

It is recommended that the user provide his/her AWS credentials using environment variables, as discussed earlier. However, a non-root user can also store his/her credentials using hcs3 setstore. The credentials are stored in an encrypted file in the $HOME/.hytrust directory.

Non-root users can also set their temporary scratch space using the hcs3 set command.
