=head1 NAME

Unix::PasswdFile - Perl interface to /etc/passwd format files

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Unix::PasswdFile;

  $pw = new Unix::PasswdFile "/etc/passwd";
  $pw->user("joeblow", $pw->encpass("secret"), $pw->maxuid + 1, 10,
	    "Joe Blow", "/export/home/joeblow", "/bin/ksh");
  $pw->delete("deadguy");
  $pw->passwd("johndoe", $pw->encpass("newpass"));
  foreach $user ($pw->users) {
      print "Username: $user, Full Name: ", $pw->gecos($user), "\n";
  }
  $pw->commit();
  undef $pw;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The Unix::PasswdFile module provides an abstract interface to /etc/passwd
format files.  It automatically handles file locking, getting colons in the
right places, and all the other niggling details.

=head1 METHODS

=head2 commit( [BACKUPEXT] )

See the Unix::ConfigFile documentation for a description of this method.

=head2 delete( USERNAME )

This method will delete the named user.  It has no effect if the supplied user
does not exist.

=head2 encpass( PASSWORD )

See the Unix::ConfigFile documentation for a description of this method.

=head2 gecos( USERNAME [,GECOS] )

Read or modify a user's GECOS string (typically their full name).  Returns
the GECOS string in either case.

=head2 gid( USERNAME [,GID] )

Read or modify a user's GID.  Returns the GID in either case.

=head2 home( USERNAME [,HOMEDIR] )

Read or modify a user's home directory.  Returns the home directory in either
case.

=head2 maxuid( [IGNORE] )

This method returns the maximum UID in use by all users.  If you pass in the
optional IGNORE parameter, it will ignore all UIDs greater or equal to IGNORE
when doing this calculation.  This is useful for excluding accounts like
nobody.

=head2 new( FILENAME [,OPTIONS] )

See the Unix::ConfigFile documentation for a description of this method.

=head2 passwd( USERNAME [,PASSWD] )

Read or modify a user's password.  Returns the encrypted password in either
case.  If you have a plaintext password, use the encpass method to encrypt it
before passing it to this method.

=head2 rename( OLDNAME, NEWNAME )

This method changes the username for a user.  If NEWNAME corresponds to an
existing user, that user will be overwritten.  It returns 0 on failure and 1
on success.

=head2 shell( USERNAME [,SHELL] )

Read or modify a user's shell.  Returns the shell in either case.

=head2 uid( USERNAME [,UID] )

Read or modify a user's UID.  Returns the UID in either case.

=head2 user( USERNAME [,PASSWD, UID, GID, GECOS, HOMEDIR, SHELL] )

This method can add, modify, or return information about a user.  Supplied
with a single username parameter, it will return a six element list consisting
of (PASSWORD, UID, GID, GECOS, HOMEDIR, SHELL), or undef if no such user
exists.  If you supply all seven parameters, the named user will be created
or modified if it already exists.  The six element list is also returned to
you in this case.

=head2 users( [SORTBY] )

This method returns a list of all existing usernames.  By default the list
will be sorted in order of the UIDs of the users.  You may also supply "name"
as a parameter to the method to get the list sorted by username.  In scalar
context, this method returns the total number of users.
