partly success
well certainly there appears to be no way to retrieve exactly the same deleted file. So, all I could do is look for the file in
/var/preserve/username
that is where VI stores the open files when the session is suddenly terminated. And luckily I found a recent version of my deleted file there...

rmauth
getauth(8) System Manager's Manual getauth(8)
Name
getauth, setauth, rmauth - auth database maintenance
Syntax
getauth [username]
setauth
rmauth username
Description
The command takes as it's only argument a user name or UID. If a user name is supplied it is converted to a UID by searching through The
UID is then used to look up the users entry in the database. If an entry is found it is converted to an ASCII string with a syntax resem-
bling that of the passwd file and printed out as a single line. If no entry is found nothing is printed and an exit status of `1' is
returned.
# getauth username
1000:idvidfy8d:1920129:3600:2678400:0e:0:1000:0:00:00
The first field is the UID of the entry which is used as the key into the database. Then follows: the encrypted password, password modifi-
cation time, minimum password lifetime, maximum password lifetime, account mask, login failure count, audit ID, audit control, audit mask,
and a reserved field.
If the optional username argument is not supplied to getauth it will produce an output line for every entry in the auth database.
The command expects one or more lines from the standard input which must be of a form identical to that produced by the command. The com-
mand converts and stores these lines into the database, one entry per line, replacing any entry already existing for the given UID. By
piping the output of the command into the input of the command an expensive NOP can be produced:
# /usr/etc/sec/getauth | /usr/etc/sec/setauth
The command expects exactly one argument, the user name or UID of an auth entry to be deleted. If the entry is found it is erased and
deleted. If it is not found no action is taken and an exit status of 1 is returned.
Restrictions
Only the superuser and members of the group may read information from the auth database. Only the superuser may modify the auth database.
Diagnostics
An exit value of 0 indicates a successful operation. An exit status of 1 indicates the entry was not found on a lookup or deletion opera-
tion. Any other exit status indicates an error.
