Syntax

loadpwd   [-c directory] [-o file] [-l file] [-i] [-f] [-t] [-L lacfile] [-?]  
-c directory

The path to the directory that contains the passwd.conf and group.conf files. These files have the same format as /etc/group and /etc/passwd. They describe the attributes the logins added by this command will have (uid, home directory, etc.).The default is /etc/asg.

-o file

Path to the output file. Default is /etc/asg/asgfile.

-l file

Path to the authentication file to be loaded. The default is the newest file in /var/home/ftp/pub.

-i

Ignore the config file if the login already exists. By default, logins in the authentication file that already exist on the system are changed so they match what is in the passwd. conf and group.conf files. This option overrides this behavior.

-f

Force the new authentication file to load even if product ID’s don’t match.

-t

Test if the authentication file is valid; do not install.

-L lacfile

Only valid with -t option . Use this file for the overwrite legality test instead of the installed lacfile.

-?

Display the usage statement.
