Password File Editors

MDFS::Apps.Networking.PWEditors

On most fileservers, users are managed by the system administrator with commands such as *NEWUSER, *REMUSER, *SETSPACE, etc. The SJ Research MDFS fileserver uses a different philosophy. The administrator edits the password file directly. The SJ password editor editpass is quite a useful program, and I have modified and adapted it to become a password file editor for other file servers.

I have also modified my version of the SJ password editor to have an additional (C)reate option to automatically create a users User Root Directory, set the directory's account to the user's personal account number and credit their account with an initial amount of space. It can also load and save a backup password file.
