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  ignores  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	dupli-
       cate 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	 directory' switch can appear more than	one time in an invoca-
       tion to conflict.

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