Hi
Thanks for the syntax. It works perfectly now. Good advice about the
brutal technique too.
I'm actually trying to debug a bash script which runs getent passwd
<user>. On Ubuntu it seems that getent is run in a different process
as it returns nothing. The same script on openSUSE returns as
expected. I know it's OT but any ideas how to get output from getent
in an Ubuntu bash script?
is it 'getent passwd <user>' that returns nothing or 'getent
passwd'
that returns nothing?
Cheers,
Steve
