+#### **--userns**=*mode*
+
+Set the user namespace mode for the container. It defaults to the **PODMAN_USERNS** environment variable. An empty value ("") means user namespaces are disabled unless an explicit mapping is set with the **--uidmap** and **--gidmap** options.
+
+Rootless user --userns=Key mappings:
+
+Key | Host User | Container User
+----------|---------------|---------------------
+"" |$UID |0 (Default User account mapped to root user in container.)
+keep-id |$UID |$UID (Map user account to same UID within container.)
+auto |$UID | nil (Host User UID is not mapped into container.)
+nomap |$UID | nil (Host User UID is not mapped into container.)
+
+Valid _mode_ values are:
+
+**auto**[:_OPTIONS,..._]: automatically create a unique user namespace.
+
+The `--userns=auto` flag, requires that the user name `containers` and a range of subordinate user ids that the Podman container is allowed to use be specified in the /etc/subuid and /etc/subgid files.
+
+Example: `containers:2147483647:2147483648`.
+
+Podman allocates unique ranges of UIDs and GIDs from the `containers` subordinate user ids. The size of the ranges is based on the number of UIDs required in the image. The number of UIDs and GIDs can be overridden with the `size` option. The `auto` options currently does not work in rootless mode
+
+ Valid `auto` options:
+
+ - *gidmapping*=_CONTAINER_GID:HOST_GID:SIZE_: to force a GID mapping to be present in the user namespace.
+ - *size*=_SIZE_: to specify an explicit size for the automatic user namespace. e.g. `--userns=auto:size=8192`. If `size` is not specified, `auto` will estimate a size for the user namespace.
+ - *uidmapping*=_CONTAINER_UID:HOST_UID:SIZE_: to force a UID mapping to be present in the user namespace.
+
+**container:**_id_: join the user namespace of the specified container.
+
+**host**: create a new namespace for the container.
+
+**keep-id**: creates a user namespace where the current rootless user's UID:GID are mapped to the same values in the container. This option is ignored for containers created by the root user.
+
+**nomap**: creates a user namespace where the current rootless user's UID:GID are not mapped into the container. This option is ignored for containers created by the root user.
+
+**ns:**_namespace_: run the pod in the given existing user namespace.

## EXAMPLES
Recreate the pod and containers as described in a file called `demo.yml`
