I would suggest you to be specific about your question. Could you tell us about the permissions you are talking about?

Except permission, other things can be listed by :

Code:
#cat /etc/passwd

Thanks,
Deepak

As Deepak has said, you'll have to be more specific about what user permissions you want to view.

suppose if i created user name shut.. with below command
useradd -m /export/home/shut -d shut
i want to see shut's user home directory ,shut permissions(read,write,execute),.....
but we can see the home directory in /etc/passwd...but we cannot see the permissions (r,w,x) to shut..means whether shut is having permisions to use any type of applicationssss?

So you want the file permissions on the user's home dir?
Code:
ls -ld `egrep '^username\:' /etc/passwd | cut -d ':' -f 6`| awk '{ print $1 }' | head -1
