Message-ID: <18698@rpp386.cactus.org> Date: 6 Nov 90 02:43:45 GMT Reply-To: j...@rpp386.cactus.org (John F. Haugh II) Followup-To: poster Organization: Lone Star Cafe and BBS Service Lines: 14 Posted: Tue Nov 6 03:43:45 1990 X-Clever-Slogan: Recycle or Die. Can someone explain to me (without snooping about their source code) what the new fields in the System V Release 4 /etc/shadow file are for? Four new fields were added since SVR3 and I don't have the structure member names or their functions. Please don't look at your source code to tell me this info - I need the information to be "clean". No verbatim copies from manuals either. As reward your name will appear in the credits the next time I repost the shadow-login sources. -- John F.
