NEWUSERS.PL(8)			    usermatic			  NEWUSERS.PL(8)

NAME
     newusers.pl  - A perl script that compares a list of usernames and MD5 sums
     output by digestion.pl(1) to the passwd database and outputs a list of  ac-
     counts that are in that list but not in the passwd database.

SYNOPSIS
     hunter-seeker.pl	  [ -h ]     [ -i [input file] ]    [ -o [output file] ]
     [ -f [MD5 sum field in GECOS] ] [ -G [affected group] ]

DESCRIPTION
     hunter-seeker.pl iterates through /etc/passwd comparing MD5 sums  of  users
     in the group specified as argument to -G to a list of MD5 sums as output by
     digestion.pl(8).  It outputs a list of users that are in the input list but
     not in passwd(5). This list is suitable for processing with userneu(8).

     -i [input file]
	  Read input from input file or stdin if "-".

     -o [output file]
	  Write output to output file or stdout if "-".

     -G [group]
	  Iterate over all users whose primary group is group.

     -a [file]
	  Read a list of MD5 sums to be ignored from file. Even  if  these  sums
	  are  not  found in passwd(5), they are not written to the output list.
	  This might be useful if you'd like to  keep  some  old  user	accounts
	  without MD5 sums in the GECOS field.

     -f [MD5 sum field in GECOS]
	  Specify the field in GECOS that contains the MD5 sum.

FILES
	     list_digested   Default input filename
	     to_create	     Default output filename
