NOTES
       If you are attempting to add the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files to
       the A&A database, save them before running uxtoaa.

       As uxtoaa exits at the first error it encounters, run authck(1m)
       first to verify that uxtoaa has a valid pre-existing A&A database
       to add to.

       uxtoaa processes groups before users.  If uxtoaa fails while
       processing the groupfile, you must edit the groupfile to remove the
       entries uxtoaa cannot process.

       Similarly with processing the passwdfile, uxtoaa will fail at the
       first user it cannot process.  In this case, too, you must edit the
       passwdfile to remove the entries uxtoaa cannot process.

       uxtoaa reports duplicate group and user ids and always keeps the
       entry in the pre-existing A&A database.

       Always run authck(1m) after uxtoaa successfully completes.

       uxtoaa only processes the entries in the specified source files.
       If you want to include groups and users from the NIS domain, do the
       following:
            $ su
            # ypcat group > domain.group
            # ypcat passwd > domain.passwd
            # vi domain.passwd
            # vi domain.group
            # authck
            # uxtoaa domain.passwd domain.group
            # authck
