Hi JA50,
Your show directories script is looking pretty good, and is the right approach to creating shell scripts in general. But in your case, you are trying to write something rather different as it's not directories you are looking for, and you need to keep count of the number of dead accounts you find as you go to display at the end.
The first question you should probably answer is how you would go about determining if an account is dead, forgetting entirely about writing a script to do it and just thinking about the process your follow if you were checking one account yourself.
Once you can find the right steps to take in unix, then decide how best to script it.

lmfsetup
lmfsetup(8) System Manager's Manual lmfsetup(8)
NAME
lmfsetup - License Management Facility (LMF) registration script
SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/lmfsetup [template]
DESCRIPTION
You use the lmfsetup script to register data supplied by a Product Authorization Key (PAK). The lmfsetup script prompts you for the data
associated with each field on a PAK. Once you enter all the data, LMF makes sure you have supplied entries for all mandatory fields and
that the value in the Checksum field validates the license data. If all data is correct, LMF registers the PAK in the License Database. If
any data is incorrect, LMF displays the appropriate error message and gives you an opportunity to reenter the data.
The template argument allows you to register license data from templates in /usr/var/adm/lmf. The templates stored in this directory are
created by some software products during their installation process. When you use a template, the script prompts you to supply data for any
empty fields in the template. If the lmfsetup script cannot find the specified template in /usr/var/adm/lmf, it searches your current work-
ing directory.
Use the lmfsetup script when you want to register a PAK without using an editor. Normally, you should use the lmf register command. The
lmf register command displays a template, which includes the fields on the PAK, and invokes an editor so that you can add the license data
to the appropriate fields. The lmf register command allows you to correct errors without having to reenter all the data.
