CMACCT (COMPARE_ACCOUNT) -- Compare account files.
usage:  CMACCT rgy1_path rgy2_path


FORMAT

  CMACCT rgy1_path rgy2_path


  CMACCT  (Compare_Account) compares the contents of account files for duplicate
  entries.  Accounts that appear in both  registries  and  are  associated  with
  different  home  directories  and/or  passwords  are  reported.  Use EDACCT to
  resolve these account collisions.

  Use CMACCT when you create a DOMAIN internet or when you  join  networks  with
  some  network  accessories.  For  example,  you can join two Apollo Token Ring
  networks with the DOMAIN Fiber Optic Link; two  IEEE  802.3  networks  can  be
  joined  with  repeaters.    For  more  information  on creating internets, see
  Managing DOMAIN Internets.  For information on joining networks  with  network
  accessories, see Administering Your DOMAIN System.

  For  complete information on comparing network registries, see Managing DOMAIN
  Internets and Administering Your DOMAIN System manuals for procedures  on  the
  use of CMPPO.


ARGUMENTS

  rgy1_path
  (required)          Specify  the  pathname  of a registry file to be compared.
                     The   pathname   may   be   the   master   registry    file
                     (//node/REGISTRY/RGY_MASTER),  a  node's copy of the master
                     registry file (//node/REGISTRY/REGISTRY), or simply a  node
                     entry  directory (//node).  If the pathname is a node entry
                     directory, the //node/REGISTRY/REGISTRY file is used.

EXAMPLES

  The following commands compare the account files in two different  registries,
  delete the account that is assoicated with different home directories from one
  of the registries, and then compare the account  files  again  to  check  that
  there are no more collisions.

  $ cmacct //alpha/registry/rgy_master //beta/registry/rgy_master

  Account user.none.none has different home directories: /  //guest/user

  1 account collision

  $ edacct -r //alpha/registry/rgy_master
  => d user none none
  user   none  none  /
  OK to delete this account? (Y/N/Quit): y
  Current entry is:  smith  none    r_d      //martha/smith
  => wr

  $ cmacct //alpha/registry/rgy_master //beta/registry/rgy_master

  No account collisions
