Hey,
i am trying to add a batch of users to one of our servers here at work. I was coding a bash script to do it, but then i found out about the newusers command. So, not wanting to re-invent the wheel, i proceeded to read the man page to find out how to use the command. However, the man page tells me a little about the command but nothing about the input file format. I've also tried looking at the info page for newusers but it's the same page as the man page.....if that makes any sense.
here's a link to a on-line version of the man page:

anyways, i guess my question is: has anybody ever used this command? If so how is the input file formatted? The man page gives minor hints, but it's kinda confusing. Thanks for the help in advance.
