Portable netgroup utilities
===========================
These tools give convenient access to netgroups from the command line.
The programs innetgr and netgroup is supposed to be identical to the
NetBSD equivalent. This package was created to make these nice
programs available on all the platforms I'm using at the moment.
The manual page for the NetBSD tools are available from
<URL: http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?netgroup+1+NetBSD-current >
<URL: http://netbsd.gw.com/cgi-bin/man-cgi?innetgr+1+NetBSD-current >
The latest version of these tools are available from
<URL: https://salsa.debian.org/debian/ng-utils >.
Report bugs and patches to pere@hungry.com.
TODO
----
- Make sure these programs behave the same way as their NetBSD
inspirators. (done)
Standard complience...
----------------------
I have asked the Austin Group to standardise the netgroup API in POSIX
to avoid the current situation where UNIX-systems have different
function prototypes and behaviour. See
<URL:http://www.opengroup.org/austin/mailarchives/ag-review/msg01356.html>
for more info.
