NAME
getprpw - display protected password database
SYNOPSIS
getprpw [-l [-r][-m
parm[,parm ]] username
DESCRIPTION
getprpw displays the user’s protected password database settings. This command is available only to
the superuser in a trusted system. Normally it is only used via SAM, see sam(1M).
getprpw uses the /etc/nsswitch.conf
configuration file default if
-l is not specified. See
nsswitch.conf(4).
Options
getprpw recognizes the following options.
-l Specifies to get information from the local user.
-r Displays the arguments supplied to -m
in raw format
-m Displays the database value for the argument passed.
An "invalid-opt" is printed if a list of options passed to
-m contains an invalid option. The rest of the
options will be processed. If
getprpw is specified without -m, all parameters are displayed in the
order given below.
Boolean values are returned as
YES, NO,orDFT (for system default values in
/tcb/files/auth/system/default
).
Numeric values are specified as positive numbers, 0, or -1. A value of -1 indicates that the field has
not been assigned a value in the database.
Units of time are returned in number of days (>=0), although the database keeps them in seconds.
This and other minor differences between the command parameters and the database fields are con-
sistent with modprpw(1M).
The following parameters for the user can be displayed using the
-m option.
They are listed below in the order shown in
prot.h. The database fields are fully explained in
prpwd(4).
