Shell script to regenerate vpasswd file

[Sailin Nelson]

Just in case any of you find yourself in the frustrating situation I was in a few weeks ago where your vpasswd file gets narfled and for one reason another you dont have a current backup or your backup is corrupt, I'm attaching a really basic script (the first real shell script I've ever written, so excuse any glaring flaws) that walks through the directory structure and makes vpasswd entrys. You will of course need to change the users passwords as they call and complain :) Also, if anyones interested I wrote another script that will the backup directory generated by this script and restore it to the appropriate user directorys and subdirectorys (0,1,2 etc) which is nice if your setting up a new vpopmail setup and dont want to bring over your existing cluttered directory structure. I will post that if anyone requests it. Hope this helps someone out.   P.S. Thanks to Ken for keeping this software going despite all the hardships. I and many others really appreciate it.   Cheers, Sailin Nelson HomerNet
