|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility
|
|
scans the given file or, failing that, the system-wide group file for
|
|
errors.
|
|
Specifically, it checks that every non-blank, non-comment
|
|
entry is composed of four colon-separated fields, that none of them
|
|
contains whitespace, and that the third field (the group ID) is
|
|
numeric.
|
|

|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
For each error found,
|
|
.Nm
|
|
will print an error message containing the name of the file being
|
|
scanned and the line number on which the error was found.
|
|
Otherwise no
|
|
output is produced.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility returns
|
|
.Dv EX_DATAERR
|
|
if errors were found in the group file,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv EX_OK
|
|
otherwise.
