List of users on Unix/Linux

(imported comment written by Lee Wei)

The “local user” inspector is Windows only, so not useful for UNIX/Linux.

There are no built-in inspector, so we will have to go directly to the OS.

My UNIX/Linux is getting old, but if /etc/passwd is still the source for user accounts, my thinking would be to use that and filter out system ids.

Suppose that anything under 1000 are reserved for built in account then we can try the following. I assume that the password field is just an X.

preceding texts of firsts “:” of lines whose (preceding text of first “:” of following text of first “:x:” of it) as integer > 999) of file “/etc/passwd”
