grpck(1M_BSD)        (BSD System Compatibility)        grpck(1M_BSD)


       NAME
             grpck - (BSD) check group database entries

       SYNOPSIS
             /usr/ucb/grpck [file]

       DESCRIPTION
             grpck checks that a file in group(4) does not contain any
             errors; it checks the /etc/group file by default.

             This command differs from /usr/sbin/grpck in its ability to
             correctly parse YP entries in /etc/passwd.

       FILES
             /etc/group

       REFERENCES
             group(4), passwd(4)

       DIAGNOSTICS
             Too many/few fields
                   An entry in the group file does not have the proper
                   number of fields.

             No group name
                   The group name field of an entry is empty.

             Bad character(s) in group name
                   The group name in an entry contains characters other
                   than lowercase letters and digits.

             Invalid GID
                   The group ID field in an entry is not numeric or is
                   greater than 65535.

             Null login name
                   A login name in the list of login names in an entry is
                   null.

             Login name not found in password file
                   A login name in the list of login names in an entry is
                   not in the password file.
