Can you please write the script for the functionality of the option [Update] where it should upadte all the users in passwd file

[James R. Ferguson]

Hi:

Sure. Send $$$.

It helps _you_ to try yourself and then ask when/where you are stuck!

...JRF...

[Pete Randall]

I would be tempted to just use the passwd command.


Pete

But you can send me $$$, too! (Good idea, Jim)

[MarkSyder]

You're probably right, Pete, but the wording looks suspiciously like an exam question to me. The examiner might not like the answer "Just use passwd"!

Mark:> ...but the wording looks suspiciously like an exam question to me...

This "unixadmin" has been posting many of his work assignments to the HP Forums, expecting the folks here to perform his job functions on his behalf.

[Pete Randall]

So you mean the name "unixadmin" is either a joke on us or wishful thinking on their part?

Wow! Just paint me gullible and naive - - NOT!

And his/her point assignment ratio is really poor as well:

I have assigned points to 10 of 102 responses to my questions.

[MarkSyder]

I don't think any of us were expecting points for these replies Patrick!

Mark

[Pete Randall]

Well, exams generally only have 100 points so it seems obvious that "unixadmin" can't hand them out too freely - there's just not enough to go around!


Pete

[Patrick Wallek]

I didn't figure you were.

I was just trying to make the point (sic.) that overall his/her assignment ratio sucks.
