NAME

putspwent() − write secure password file entry, for trusted systems

SYNOPSIS

#include <pwd.h>

int putspwent(const struct s_passwd *p, FILE *f);

DESCRIPTION

putspwent() is the inverse of getspwent().  See getspwent(3X). putspwent() is no longer supported, but is provided for use by those applications that did not use the old shadow password, /.secure/etc/passwd. 

To update a entry in the new protected password database for trusted systems, use putprpwnam(3). See getprpwent(3) for more information.
