NAME

       Passwd - tied hash and DBI access to passwd files

SYNOPSIS

        use AnyData;
        my $users = adTie( 'Passwd', '/etc/passwd' );
        print $users->{jdoe}->{homedir};
        # ... other tied hash operations

        OR

        use DBI
        my $dbh = DBI->connect('dbi:AnyData:');
        $dbh->func('users','Passwd','/etc/passwd','ad_catalog');
        my $g7 = $dbh->selectall_arrayref( qq{
            SELECT username, homedir FROM users WHERE GID = '7'
        });
        # ... other DBI/SQL operations

DESCRIPTION

       This module provides a tied hash interface and a DBI/SQL interface to passwd files.
       Simply specify the format as 'Passwd' and give the name of the file and the modules will
       build a hash table with the column names

        username
        passwd
        UID
        GID
        fullname
        homedir
        shell

       The username field is treated as a key column.

       This module is a submodule of the AnyData.pm and DBD::AnyData.pm modules.  Refer to their
       documentation for further details.
