       cpu - A tool for user and group administration

SYNOPSIS

       cpu [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       CPU  is  a tool for user administration, that was initially based on FreeBSD's pw(8). This
       tool will allow you to administer users and groups on several different backends currently
       including  LDAP and flat files. Please see the website http://cpu.sourceforge.net for more
       information, or help improve the man page.

OPTIONS

       There are two kinds of options; options for CPU and options for CPU  modules.   There  are
       only four options for CPU, they are as follows:

       -C configfile, --config configfile
              The configuration file to be used by CPU. The options in this file are used for CPU
              modules.

       -h, --help
              Display help for CPU. If specified in conjunction with the -m option the  help  for
              that particular module is displayed.

       -M method, --method=method
              This is the method of administration. Current options are ldap or passwd (passwd is
              not yet working). This can be specified in the configuration file.

       -V, --version
              Display the version of the software.
