CONFLICT(8)		     System Manager's Manual		     CONFLICT(8)

NAME
     conflict - search for alias/password conflicts

SYNOPSIS
     /usr/local/lib/mh/conflict [-mail name] [-search directory] [aliasfiles...]
	  [-help]

DESCRIPTION
     Conflict  is  a  program that checks to see if the interface between MH and
     transport system is in good shape

     Conflict also checks for maildrops in /var/mail which do not  belong  to  a
     valid user.  It assumes that no user name will start with `.', and thus ig-
     nores  files in /var/mail which begin with `.'.  It also checks for entries
     in the group (5) file which do not belong to a valid user,  and  for  users
     who  do  not  have  a  valid group number.  In addition duplicate users and
     groups are noted.

     If the `-mail name' switch is used, then the results will be  sent  to  the
     specified name.  Otherwise, the results are sent to the standard output.

     The `-search directory' switch can be used to search directories other than
     /var/mail	and  to report anomalies in those directories.	The `-search di-
     rectory' switch can appear more than one time in an invocation to conflict.

     Conflict should be run under  cron (8), or whenever system accounting takes
     place.
