I am working on an account generation program on the apollo platform,
and can not for the life of me, find any commands similar to putpwent,
that, obviously, puts an entry into a password file (on those systems
that use a passwd file).  So, I was wondering if there are any library
commands that I can use to write entries into the registry through C.

I can write a script file and use import_passwd, but I would rather kind
and stay away from that since my program has to be portable over several
platforms.  C is really preferred here.

Any help appreciated.  Please e_mail if possible, as I don't regulary
follow this group.

Thanks in advance.
