sub usage {
print STDOUT <<END_OF_USAGE;
usage: $program [--help] [--hash|--group|--passwd]
REQUIRED: --passwd, --group, or --hash. These specify whether $program is to
operate on a passwd(5) format file, on a group(5) format file, or simply
to generate a password hash, respectively.
If used with --passwd, $program creates a file in the passwd(5) format,
suitable for use with proftpd's AuthUserFile configuration directive.
You will be prompted for the password to use of the user, which will be
encrypted, and written out as the encrypted string. New entries are
appended to the file by default.
By default, using --passwd will write output to "$default_passwd_file".
Error exit values:
To make it easier for wrapper scripts to interact with $program, $program
will exit with the following error values for the reasons described:
1 no such user
2 password matches current password
4 password matches system password
8 relative path given for home directory
Options:
--file Write output to specified file, rather than "$default_passwd_file".
-F If the file to be used already exists, delete it and write a
--force new one. By default, new entries will be appended to the file.
--gecos Descriptive string for the given user (usually the user's
full name).
--gid Primary group ID for this user (optional, will default to
given --uid value if absent).
-h Displays this message.
--help
--home Home directory for the user (required).
--des Use the DES algorithm for encrypting passwords. The default
is the MD5 algorithm.
--md5 Use the MD5 algorithm for encrypting passwords. This is the
default.
--name Name of the user account (required). If the name does not
exist in the specified output-file, an entry will be created
for her. Otherwise, the given fields will be updated.
--shell Shell for the user (required). Recommended: /bin/false
--uid Numerical user ID (required)
--change-password
Update only the password field for a user. This option
requires that the --name and --passwd options be used, but
no others. This also double-checks the given password against
the user's current password in the existing passwd file, and
requests that a new password be given if the entered password
is the same as the current password.
--delete-user
Remove the entry for the given user name from the file.
--not-previous-password
Double-checks the given password against the previous password
for the user, and requests that a new password be given if
the entered password is the same as the previous password.
--not-system-password
Double-checks the given password against the system password
for the user, and requests that a new password be given if
the entered password is the same as the system password. This
helps to enforce different passwords for different types of
access.
--stdin
Read the password directly from standard in rather than
prompting for it. This is useful for writing scripts that
automate use of $program.
--use-cracklib
Causes $program to use Alec Muffet's cracklib routines in
order to determine and prevent the use of bad or weak
passwords. The optional path to this option specifies
the path to the dictionary files to use -- default path
is "$default_cracklib_dict". This requires the Perl
Crypt::Cracklib module to be installed on your system.
--version
Displays the version of $program.
If used with --group, $program creates a file in the group(5) format,
suitable for use with proftpd's AuthGroupFile configuration directive.
By default, using --group will write output to "$default_group_file".
Options:
--delete-group
Remove the entry for the given group name from the file.
--enable-group-passwd
Prompt for a group password. This is disabled by default,
as group passwords are not usually a good idea at all.
--file Write output to specified file, rather than "$default_group_file".
-F If the file be used already exists, delete it and write a new
--force one. By default, new entries will be appended to the file.
--gid Numerical group ID (required).
-h
--help Displays this message.
-m
--member User name to be a member of the group. This argument may be
used multiple times to specify the full list of users to be
members of this group.
--des Use the DES algorithm for encrypting passwords. The default
is the MD5 algorithm.
--md5 Use the MD5 algorithm for encrypting passwords. This is the
default.
--name Name of the group (required). If the name does not exist in
the specified output-file, an entry will be created for them.
Otherwise, the given fields will be updated.
--stdin
Read the password directly from standard in rather than
prompting for it. This is useful for writing scripts that
automate use of $program.
--use-cracklib
Causes $program to use Alec Muffet's cracklib routines in
order to determine and prevent the use of bad or weak
passwords. The optional path to this option specifies
the path to the dictionary files to use -- default path
is "$default_cracklib_dict". This requires the Perl
Crypt::Cracklib module to be installed on your system.
--version
Displays the version of $program.
If used with --hash, $program generates a hash of a password, as would
appear in an AuthUserFile. The hash is written to standard out.
This hash is suitable for use with proftpd's UserPassword directive.
Options:
--des Use the DES algorithm for encrypting passwords. The default
is the MD5 algorithm.
--md5 Use the MD5 algorithm for encrypting passwords. This is the
default.
--stdin
Read the password directly from standard in rather than
prompting for it. This is useful for writing scripts that
automate use of $program.
--use-cracklib
Causes $program to use Alec Muffet's cracklib routines in

passwords. The optional path to this option specifies
the path to the dictionary files to use -- default path
is "$default_cracklib_dict". This requires the Perl
Crypt::Cracklib module to be installed on your system.
