/* These routines write and read records from a password database,
|
|
named "passdb" in the current directory.
|
|
|
|
The 'mygetpwnam' routine takes as argument a username, and returns
|
|
NULL on failure to find it in the database, or a pointer to static
|
|
storage if found. This storage will be overwritten on the next
|
|
call.
|
|
|
|
The 'mysetpwent' routine takes a name, and a struct 'mypwent', and
|
|
replaces the data pertaining to 'name' in the database with the
|
|
supplied struct. It returns 0 on success, -1 on failure to replace
|
|
the record.
|
|
|
|
The database has free form records, the length of which must not
|
|
exceed 79 characters, the fields are separated by ':', much like
|
|
the passwd database. The fields are:
|
|
name:uid:passwd:salt:no_of_failed_attempts:password_age respectively.
|
|
|
|
Note the separate 'salt' field, to simplify some of non-obligatory
|
|
assignments, it is of course entirely possible, not to use this
|
|
field, but instead to include the salt in the password field, in
|
|
similarity with the passwd database. */
|
|
|
|
/* Usage: copy the files to your own working directory, and
|
|
use; #include "pwent.h" to include it. */
