Hello Greg, You should get the Shadows extension, available from
ftp://ftp.eur.nl/pub/homebrew/Shadow-0.01.tar.gz and install it as per the instructions provided. Then it's just a simple call at the top fo your script Use Shadows; and you can then use getspnam instead of getpwnam to return the proper value. cheers, Anth Systems Administrator - PLANET NETCOM - [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------ "Bill Oddie, Bill Oddie, rub your beard all over my body" Reading soccer supporters parody Madonna's 'Erotica' in tribute to celebrity fan and bearded former star of The Goodies. _______________________________________________ Redhat-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
