The following reply was made to PR bin/30424; it has been noted by GNATS. From: Jilles Tjoelker <jil...@stack.nl> To: bug-follo...@freebsd.org, a...@batie.org Cc: Subject: Re: bin/30424: Generalization of vipw(8) to lock pwdb while being edited by a script Date: Fri, 30 Jul 2010 01:50:55 +0200
Is there any reason you need a special option in vipw(8) to run (in effect) a different editor, when temporarily changing the EDITOR environment variable would do the same? Also, the pw(8) utility may be useful, allowing various modifications to the passwd database more easily. -- Jilles Tjoelker _______________________________________________ freebsd-bugs@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-bugs To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-bugs-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
