3 Syntax as a command: print_pnt Person_id -control_args
4
5
6 Function: prints the contents of a binary person name table PNT in a
7 readable form on the administrator's terminal. Note that, while
8 portions of the user entry in the PNT are stored in encrypted form, any
9 encryption algorithm is susceptible to a sophisticated,
10 computer-assisted code-breaking effort. Therefore the System
11 Administrator should ensure that access to the PNT is as restricted as
12 possible. In general, only the SysAdmin and SysDaemon projects should
13 have access to the PNT.

16 Arguments:

19 argument is omitted, the entire PNT is printed.

22 Control arguments:
23 -brief
24 makes no attempt to access information in the user registration file
25 URF.
26 -force_no_password_info
27 same as -no_password_info, but additionally causes the rejection of
28 the -password_info control argument for this invocation of
29 print_pnt. This control argument can be used to ensure that limited
30 system administrators cannot obtain password information.

32
33 -no_password_info
34 suppresses the display of information about good or bad passwords
35 and the date of password change. The rest of the PNT/URF entry is
36 displayed.
37 -password_info
38 displays any information about good or bad passwords and the date of
39 password change with the rest of the PNT/URF entry. Default
