i'm trying to use the editfiles function to distribute and maintain a
standard password file. this file is going to hosts running various
platform OSes, and which have various "host specific" or "class
specific" users in addition to the set of users in the standard passwd
file i'm distributing.
i'd like to use something like
SplitOn ":"
ForEachLineIn "/usr/local/etc/passwd.local"
ReplaceLinesMatchingField "1"
AppendIfNoLineMatchingField "1"
EndLoop
of course, the 'AppendIfNoLineMatchinField' function doesn't exist; i
wonder how i'd go about doing this?
i found a similar query in the archive for February 1999, below... but i
didn't see any responses.
