I'm working on a simple script to get a list of users who do not exist while (<>) { $user = system("echo $_"); $result = system("dsquery user -samID $_"); } if (!$result) { print "$user\n"; }
Here is my problem, dsquery user -samID should return nothing if a user does not exist. I was hoping the script would print $user only if there was no $result from dsquery user -samID. However, not only does it print every $user regardless of the was not $result, it also prints every $result. Can someone tell me why this is?
