Hello,

I am wanting to learn more about the way the Version 7 of /etc/passwd and
/etc/group are formatted.  Could anybody provide some decent web links?
Treid to search but I was lost in the over-abundance of online man pages
for passwd and group.

I would feel more comfortable knowing how to manually enter users rather
than use the scripts.
