If you have an Unix Server, simply type &quot;man getprpwuid&quot; and if you read the documentation, it specifies all functions that are designed for trusted host systems where normally you would use getpwuid.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I need a c-program that will detect if the Unix System is trusted host or not and use the appropriate function <br />
getpwuid - none trusted host<br />
getprpwuid - trusted host<br />
<br />
How do I do this?<br />
<br />
If you know the answer and have sample code, please send it to me. &nbsp;<br />
<br />
I'm creating a cgi script that will authenticate users on a Web Site using the System password DB. This includes encrypting the password using crypt &amp;&nbsp;the SALT and then comparing it to the encrypted System User password. &nbsp;If they match, your logged in. <br />
*** If you have already done this, please let me know and I'll reward you 500 points. ***<br />

Thanks.

C is a general-purpose, imperative computer programming language, supporting structured programming, lexical variable scope and recursion, while a static type system prevents many unintended operations. By design, C provides constructs that map efficiently to typical machine instructions, so it has found lasting use in applications that had formerly been coded in assembly language, including operating systems as well as various application software for computers ranging from supercomputers to embedded systems. It is distinct from C++ (which has its roots in C) and C#, and many later languages have borrowed directly or indirectly from C.
