        user = getpwent();
        printf("%s :%d :%d :%s:%s:%s\n", user->pw_name, user->pw_uid, user->pw_gid,
        user->pw_gecos, user->pw_dir, user->pw_shell);
    }

    setpwent();
    user = getpwent();
    printf("%s :%d :%d :%s:%s:%s\n", user->pw_name, user->pw_uid, user->pw_gid,
    user->pw_gecos, user->pw_dir, user->pw_shell);
    endpwent();
}
