NAME

     logins -- display account information

SYNOPSIS

     logins [-admopstux] [-g groups] [-l logins]

DESCRIPTION

     The logins utility displays information about user and system accounts.

     The following options are available:

     -a 	Display information about the password change and account expiration times for each account.

     -d 	Select accounts with duplicate UIDs.

     -g groups	Select accounts that are members of the specified groups.  If multiple group names are specified, they must be separated with com-
		mas.

     -l logins	Select accounts matching the specified login names.  If multiple names are specified, they must be separated with commas.

     -m 	Show information about secondary groups.

     -o 	Display the information for each account on a single line of colon-separated fields.

     -p 	Select accounts with no password.

     -s 	Select system accounts.  These are currently defined as accounts with UIDs below 1000, plus the ``nobody'' account (UID 65534).

     -t 	Sort selected accounts by name rather than by UID.

     -u 	Select user accounts.  These are currently defined as accounts with UIDs above 1000, except the ``nobody'' account (UID 65534).

     -x 	Display information about each account's home directory and shell.

     If multiple selection options are specified, all accounts matching any of the selection criteria will be displayed.
