Notes
The format of P4AUTH is
host:portport by itself if both the Perforce server and the authorization
server are running on the same host. All servers must be at the same
release level.
Port numbers must be in the range 1024 through 32767.
Warning
If you have set P4AUTH, no warning will be given if you delete a user
who has an open file or client.
