HI Frank,
You can use this one :
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
my $file = "/etc/passwd";
my $temppwfile = "/etc/tmppasswd";
$teller = 5000;
open(PW, "< $file");
open(NEWPW, ">$temppwfile");
while () {
($user, $pw, $uid, $grpid, $descr, $home, $shell) = split(/:/);
$newline = "${user}:${pw}:${telle
Hi
I need a script that modify the UID field in a /etc/passwd file
for UNIX
the purpose is to change the existing UID field from a start number (Eg 5000 )
for the first line then do UID + 1 for the next line etc etc until EOF
Thanks
