Query
You can use this module to query desired User account information on
one or more users depending on your search criteria. You can search
for active or inactive accounts, accounts using a specific shell,
accounts assigned to specific office locations, etc. Once your query
is successful, you can then modify the accounts, monitor the
accounts, print the account configurations, or send mail to the
marked users.
This window gives you the ability to search for information about
the user which otherwise might be tedious and time consuming to
gather. The rest of this section describes the functionality of this
window's fields and buttons.
Fields
This window contains the following fields.
User names
You can use this field to specify one or more user names will be
used in the search criteria. Multiple user names may be entered, but
must be separated by spaces.
Group names

used in the search criteria. Multiple group names may be entered,
but must be separated by spaces.

You can use these fields to limit the range of the Group IDs in the
search criteria. This data must be numeric. When Enlighten performs

the respective values are ignored.
Home dirs.
You can use this field to find all users whose home directory
matches this search criteria. Multiple directory names may be
entered, but must be separated by spaces.
The standard UNIX wild cards `*', `[]', and `?', along with the
negation operator `!', can be used in this field (e.g., /home/*).
Shell(s)
You can use this field to find all shell programs which match this
search criteria. Multiple shell names may be entered, but must be
separated by spaces.
The standard UNIX wild cards `*', `[]', and `?', along with the
negation operator `!', can be used as in this field (e.g.,
/bin/[ck]sh).
Real name
You can use this field to find all users whose Real Name matches
this search criteria. Multiple names may be entered, but must be
separated by spaces.
Office
You can use this field to find all users whose Office description
matches this search criteria. Multiple locations may be entered, but
must be separated by spaces.
Telephone
You can use this field to find all users whose telephone number
matches this search criteria. Multiple telephone numbers may be
entered, but must be separated by spaces.
Logged in since
Every time a user gains access to the system, the system date is
recorded. You can use this field to search for users based on the
time of their last system login on the local system. If the user's
date of last login is earlier than the date in this field, the
search will skip the user.
This field can be used in two ways. The first is as a static date,
where the date entered is the date used in the search. The second is
a relative date, against the system clock.
Not logged in since
Every time a user gains access to the system, the system date is
recorded. You can use this field to specify a cutoff date the search
program will use to match users. If the date of last login of a user
is later than the date entered in this field, the search will skip
the user.
Password
You must indicate which Password type is used in the search
criteria: Encrypted, Locked, or None. Any combination of one or more
of these three attributes may be selected (the default is all
three).
Buttons
This window contains the following buttons.
Execute Search
Once you've selected your search criteria, click on the Execute
Search button. A User Query Results window appears with the results
listed. If you click on this button without filling in any of the
fields, all current users information will be displayed.
Then you can use the following options to act further on the
results:
