Im trying to find a tool that will help me edit the cvsroot/passwd file.
(there are multiple cvsroots / passwd files involved)
I'm in the middle of writing a perl script, but i don't like the way it works.
It basically does the following:
1. copy passwd to passwd.tmp
2. read passwd.tmp.
2a. (for each line) if the user on the current line is Not the user im
trying to edit, then print the current line to passwd.
If it is the user im editing, then print a variable containing the
new value to passwd instead of what was in passwd.tmp
2b. If the user was not in passwd.tmp, add an entry for the new user to the
end of passwd
3. delete passwd.tmp
this will work, but i just think it's sloppy, and would rather use a tool that
is already been developed.
