encrypted password. Kerberized `login' might use this, if I get around to implementing the complete Allspice System behavior.

.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm chpass
|
|
program
|
|
allows editing of the user database information associated
|
|
with
|
|
.Ar user
|
|
or, by default, the current user.
|
|
The information is formatted and supplied to an editor for changes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Only the information that the user is allowed to change is displayed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl a
|
|
The super-user is allowed to directly supply a user database
|
|
entry, in the format specified by
|
|
.Xr passwd 5 ,
|
|
as an argument.
|
|
This argument must be a colon (``:'') separated list of all the
|
|
user database fields, although they may be empty.
|
|
.It Fl p
|
|
The super-user is allowed to directly supply an encrypted password field,
|
|
in the format used by
|
|
.Xr crypt 3 ,
|
|
as an argument.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
The
|
|
.Fl s
|
|
option attempts to change the user's shell to
|
|
.Ar newshell .
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|

Possible display items are as follows:
|

.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar login
|
|
field is the user name used to access the computer account.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar password
|
|
field contains the encrypted form of the user's password.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar uid
|
|
field is the number associated with the
|
|
.Ar login
|
|
field.
|
|
Both of these fields should be unique across the system (and often
|
|
across a group of systems) as they control file access.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
While it is possible to have multiple entries with identical login names
|
|
and/or identical user id's, it is usually a mistake to do so. Routines
|
|
that manipulate these files will often return only one of the multiple
|
|
entries, and that one by random selection.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar group
|
|
field is the group that the user will be placed in at login.
|
|
Since BSD supports multiple groups (see
|
|
.Xr groups 1 )
|
|
this field currently has little special meaning.
|
|
This field may be filled in with either a number or a group name (see
|
|
.Xr group 5 ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar change
|
|
field is the date by which the password must be changed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar expire
|
|
field is the date on which the account expires.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Both the
|
|
.Ar change
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar expire
|
|
fields should be entered in the form ``month day year'' where
|
|
.Ar month
|
|
is the month name (the first three characters are sufficient),
|
|
.Ar day
|
|
is the day of the month, and
|
|
.Ar year
|
|
is the year.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar class
|
|
field is currently unused. In the near future it will be a key to
|
|
a
|
|
.Xr termcap 5
|
|
style database of user attributes.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The user's
|
|
.Ar home directory
|
|
is the full UNIX path name where the user
|
|
will be placed at login.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Ar shell
|
|
field is the command interpreter the user prefers.
|
|
If the
|
|
.Ar shell
|
|
field is empty, the Bourne shell,
|
|
.Pa /bin/sh ,
|
|
is assumed.
|
|
When altering a login shell, and not the super-user, the user
|
|
may not change from a non-standard shell or to a non-standard
|
|
shell.
|
|
Non-standard is defined as a shell not found in
|
|
.Pa /etc/shells .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The last four fields are for storing the user's
|
|
.Ar full name , office location ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar home
|
|
and
|
|
.Ar work telephone
|
|
numbers.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Once the information has been verified,
|
|
.Nm chpass
|
|
uses
|
|
.Xr pwd_mkdb 8
|
|
to update the user database.
|
|
.Sh ENVIRONMENT
|
|
The
|
|
.Xr vi 1
|
|
editor will be used unless the environment variable EDITOR is set to
|
|
an alternate editor.
|
|
When the editor terminates, the information is re-read and used to
|
|
update the user database itself.
|
|
Only the user, or the super-user, may edit the information associated
|
|
with the user.
