Hi,
I have question, in my script i have lines as below:
open(PASSFILE, "+>>passfile") || die "Cannot open file: $!\n";
print PASSFILE "$usname[$i] : $pasname[$i]\n";
close(PASSFILE);
and they work fine,
and in the "passfile i have
root : root123
But if i want to read the lines from the passfile how do i do it?
In another perl script i want to verify whether the user is in the file or
not?
../verify root
i want to know how to match the command line argument with the pattern
present in the file.
i know
$user = $ARGV[0];
open(FILE, "passfile) || die "Cannot open file: $!\n";
while(<FILE>) {
what should come here for me to verify whether the user is present in the
passfile of not?
i tried split, grep, but could not find the correct way to put that in the
script.
Thanx for the help!
