their criteria?
im not sure if i know what your asking but ill try to explain what im building..
when the etc/passwd is copied i got a list of users say...
rmamkfda
ajkfdasj;f
akfjalkjas
ajfa;jaaa
wuiewpur
when i output who to a file lets say i get....
rmamkfda
ajkfdasj;f
akfjalkjas
oiurwpqur
wuiewpur
So i know now that oiurwpqur does not belong, that is pretty much the gist but there is much more I have to do with the passwords, i just can't past the part where I compare names, no passwords are needed yet
Thanks a lot for you help and I hope this helps.
As im reading more on join, i think this will actually give me hte similarity between the two files, but could this be considered to big, let me read man largefile and answer my own question
thanks
