Convert a shell script (User Maintenance) into a Perl script.

Hello, I am the premier Perl scripting expert on these freelancing sites. I have designed user management scripts in Shell and Perl. I am confident that I can use this Shell script as a basis for a Perl script perform similar tasks for user management. I will propose a budget when you provide this Shell script. I will write a comprehensive discussion of the role of regular expressions in Perl. How many words do you require? A milestone payment for the full budget for this project must be deposited with this site before your offer can be accepted. Alan Idler Chief Software Architect Idleswell Software Creations

Hello More 20 years programming experience. I suggest to estimate whole work, not per hourly rate and I need more details to set real price and time. Regards. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

hello! sound pretty easy! to the regular expressions: they are regular expressions - matching strings, numbers, sequences, patterns... lets take the passwd file for example: root:x:0:0:root:/root:/bin/bash daemon:x:1:1:daemon:/usr/sbin:/usr/sbin/nologin bin:x:2:2:bin:/bin:/usr/sbin/nologin sys:x:3:3:sys:/dev:/usr/sbin/nologin sync:x:4:65534:sync:/bin:/bin/sync games:x:5:60:games:/usr/games:/usr/sbin/nologin we could use a (simple) perl-regular-expression like this to extract username, group, home-directory, and default shell from every line: foreach (@LINE){ my ($user,$group,$home,$shell) = ($_ =~ m/(.+?)\:.+?\:.+?\:.+?\:(.+?)\:(.+?)\:(.+?)/); #... lets do whatever we like } im not sure what you mean with "APA formating"?! kind regards, mike

Hi there, I would like to work on your script. I have developed multiple similar scripts before in perl, shell, batch scripting. I am recently starting on freelancer but have worked with major companies like Goldman Sachs and Verizon earlier. I would like to understand your complete requirement so that I can give you proper time estimate. You can test first delivery and give me feedback on issues/concerns and I will fix everything in final version. Let me know if you need further information from my side. Hoping to hear back form you soon!!

Hello, I have been working on this kind of stuffs for around 1 year. My work includes user creation and database Administration. I am well to work on linux/UNIX OS. Database I have been working on are: SAPDB, Sybase, Orace, DB2, HANA. Majority of the systems include linux/unix OS. Many of the tasks are being automated using perl scripts. I can assure you that the project will be completed within 2 days. What I can understand from your requirement is that, a script has to be created that:- creates a user(OS user), drop user (OS user), create a group,drop a group, Menu input options. Adding to it, check needs to be done if there is an existing user. Can you tell me the number of users we are dealing in here? Below is my proposal that will further enhance the whole thing that is:- If the number of users who can execute the script is less, authentication feature may also be added in order to validate if a user is allowed to view all the details. This thereby increases the efficiency and productivity in real time. Please contact me on my mail id which you can find in my profile. Note:- Please find below my execution plan. > The data will be gathered as per requirement. > plan that best suits the requirement will be executed. > codes will be commented in order to make any enhancement. > The code will be delivered. In each phase of the project you will be informed about the enhancements to make it more precise to be delivered and executed. Thanks Regards Ankish Poddar
