    Requirements

    The following is required:
  • GTK+ 1.2+
  • Shadowed Passwords
  • Screenshots

  • View all users
  • Editing a user
  • Editing the new user template
  • View all groups
  • Edit a group
  • Installation Notes

    Download the source, then "tar zxvf filename" the file, change the new directory, then type "make".

    Make sure you read the README included in the distribution.

    Back up your passwd/shadow/group files before running. (Just in case). I use this daily for managing a 200+ user system, and have had no mishaps yet.

    Note: If your shadow/passwd/group files are in a non-standard location, edit the main.h file, and change their locations.
