I need to compare the /etc/passwd files from 2 servers, and extract the users that are similar in these two files. I sorted the 2 files based on the user IDs (UID) (3rd column). I first sorted the files using the username (1st column), however when I use comm to compare the files there is no output listed.
This is the first file :
This is the 2nd file :
This is the output after comparing both the files (I used comm) :
As you can see from the compared output, the list only lists users till the user ID 40101. But if you see the first two files, there are other IDs in it, like 40162. Why does it not list this ID?
Also is it not possible to get the similar names if I sort both the files using username (first column)? Is there any other way to do so? This is because there are some usernames with different UIDs in each server.
Another question is, how (which command to use) to list similar user IDs in multiple files (10 - 15).
