It doesn't remove any current duff users, but it does stop a user running the p4 user command and creating a new non existent user which is not part of the alluser group.
See following test done with the 2 user free licence:
------- Group: allusers Users: robert -------- Protections: write group alluser * //... super user robert * //...
E:\Robert>set p4user=robert
E:\Robert>p4 protect Protections not changed.
E:\Robert>p4 users robert <robert at lodestone> (robert) accessed 2000/01/27
E:\Robert>p4 user User robert not changed.
E:\Robert>set p4user=chuck
E:\Robert>p4 user You don't have permission for this operation.
E:\Robert>set p4user=Robert Note different case
E:\Robert>p4 user You don't have permission for this operation.
QED!
Robert

That would restrict access to the depot but would not restrict the ability to create users. The administrator would have to use the "allusers" list to determine which users were valid, and remove the others by hand or by script.

Recommended way of doing this is to create a group e.g.
p4 group allusers
and add all existing users to the group.
Then use p4 protect and remove any permissions to "*" in users column, instead use your new groupname.

Is there any way to prevent users from adding new users? Although I have defined all the users already, occasionally a user will run p4win in NT with a slightly different userid and somehow end up creating a new user. As a result the same person is listed more than once as a user with slight variations in spelling or capitalization in user name.
It would be nice to be able to use p4 protect to restrict a group's access to a specific command.
Any ideas?
