As far as I know, the only reliable way to get users accounts is to
use DirectoryServices but Apple do not provide Obj-C API for Directory
Services.
There is an obj-C wrapper in the DSTools project of Darwin (http://www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/
), so you may have a look at it.
Anyway, do not try to parse system files, you result will be wrong.
For example, you think you users are stored in /etc/passwd, so you
probably don't know /var/db/dslocal ;-) and you also have to be aware
that the local user list storage has change between 10.4 and 10.5

Hi,
I am seeking the nice clean Cocoa way of getting a list of user
accounts on the local system. Ultimately in the form of an NSArray of
NSStrings of user account short names. There must be a way without
parsing obscure system files, or spawning off NSTasks and parsing
output, right? Any and all suggestions greatly appreciated. Thanks!
