NAME

       getuduser - return user database entry of Unidata user

SYNOPSIS

       #include <unistd.h>

       const struct passwd *getudent(void);

DESCRIPTION

       This  function  returns the user database entry for the Unidata user -- or NULL if no such
       user exists.  It tries the UNIX function `getpwnam()' with a  series  of  user  names  and
       stops  at  the  first  valid  entry.  The first name tried is the value of the environment
       variable UDLOGNAME, if it exists.  The remaining names are, in order,  "unidata",  "ldm4",
       and "ldm".

ENVIRONMENT

       UDLOGNAME   Contains the name of the Unidata user.
