Manipulate standard Unix passwd files.

<u>Usage Example:</u>

  1.    $passwd &File_Passwd::factory('Unix');
  2.    $passwd->setFile('/my/passwd/file');
  3.    $passwd->load();
  4.    $passwd->addUser('mike''secret');
  5.    $passwd->save();

<u>Output of listUser()</u>

  • using the 'name map':
          array
           + user  => array
                       + pass  => crypted_passwd or 'x' if shadowed

                       + home  => home directory
                       + shell => standard shell
  • without 'name map':

           + user  => array
                       + 0  => crypted_passwd

Method Detail

File_Passwd_Unix (Constructor)   [line 116]

File_Passwd_Unix File_Passwd_Unix( [string $file = 'passwd'])

Constructor
  • Access: public

Parameters:

string   $file   —  path to passwd file

[ Top ]

addUser   [line 407]

mixed addUser( string $user, string $pass, [array $extra = array()])

Add an user

The username must start with an alphabetical character and must NOT contain any other characters than alphanumerics, the underline and dash.

If you use the 'name map' you should also use these naming in the supplied extra array, because your values would get mixed up if they are in the wrong order, which is always true if you DON'T use the 'name map'!

So be warned and USE the 'name map'!

If the passwd file is shadowed, the user will be added though, but with an 'x' as password, and a PEAR_Error will be returned, too.

Returns a PEAR_Error if:

  • user already exists
  • user contains illegal characters
  • encryption mode is not supported
  • passwords are shadowed in another file
  • any element of the $extra array contains a colon (':')

  • Return: true on success or PEAR_Error
  • Throws: PEAR_Error
  • Access: public

Parameters:

string   $user   —  the name of the user to add
string   $pass   —  the password of the user to add
array   $extra   —  extra properties of user to add

mixed changePasswd( string $user, string $pass)
