	I plan to upgrade my 8650 from Ultrix 3.1 to 4.0 next week and
have a question about the user authentication data base.  I understand
that choosing an ENHANCED level of security, the passwords will be stored
in /etc/atuh.pag.  The present password file will be converted to this
format.  All this is fine, but I am wondering what I am going to need
to do to my adduser program (autoadd which I got off the net somewhere).

How do I update the auth file from a C program ?  I did not recieve all
my docs yet, but edauth has a reference to audcntl(2).  
Is audcntl what I am looking for?  If so can someone mail the man page.  
Or is there a new version of autoadd I can get?

	Also, are there any quirks in 4.0 that I should watch for?
