Perl list of users
Hi All

i need to write something in perl that on a mac list all the users accounts, and then carries out a copy, ( rsync ) on each one it finds.

i was going to use glob, but i want to exclude a certain result here is what i have

Code:
use Getopt::Std;
use POSIX qw(tmpnam);
use lib '/tools/SITE/perl/';
#use dnutil;

 @users = `ls  /Users/`;

 foreach $users (@users) {
   
rsync blah blah blah 
   
 }

i need to exclude from that list admin,sharied and a few others

many thanks
