In uudecode.c there is a function called getpwnam. (struct passwd getpwnam)
Since I am not using a true unix (primix 2.0 yuch) I need to know what this
function does so that I can try to rewrite it.  Could anybody please either
send me a functional speck of getpwnam, or, could somebody send me a piece
of code that does what unix getpwname does, but on a PR1ME 9955.

P.S.  I realize that this is not really a 'c' question, but I don't read
unix.*.

                             Thanx,
