1 2pw is a command-line driven passwd/group editor utility that provides 3an easy and safe means of modifying of any/all fields in the system 4password files, and has an add, modify and delete mode for user and 5group records. Command line options have been fashioned to be similar 6to those used by the Sun/shadow commands: useradd, usermod, userdel, 7groupadd, groupmod, groupdel, but combines all operations within the 8single command `pw'. 9 10User add mode also provides a means of easily setting system useradd 11defaults (see pw.conf.5), so that adding a user is as easy as issuing 12the command "pw useradd <loginid>". Creation of a unique primary 13group for each user and automatic membership in secondary groups 14is fully supported. 15 16This program may be FreeBSD specific, but should be trivial to port to 17other bsd4.4 variants. 18 19Author and maintainer: David L.
