printpw(8)						      System Manager's Manual							printpw(8)

NAME

       printpw	- Outputs the contents of the password database

SYNOPSIS

       printpw [-acdgsu]

       username and the UID numerical value.

DESCRIPTION

       The  printpw  command  outputs the contents of the /etc/passwd database file in ASCII format to the standard output. When printpw is called
       with no option, all usernames in the database are output.

       The /etc/passwd database file is accessed through the standard library function getpwent. On secure systems that have changed this  library
       function or on systems with Network Information Service (NIS) service installed, printpw produces the same information.

       When printpw is called in combination with any flag, one or more additional columns separated with : (colon) is output.

EXAMPLES

       To output the username, UID, and login directory of all users in the password database file, enter: /usr/sbin/acct/printpw -ud

FILES

       Specifies the command path The password database file.
