+<h3>FGETPWENT(3) Linux Programmer's Manual FGETPWENT(3)
+</h3>
+
+<h3>NAME
+</h3> fgetpwent - get password file entry
+
+<h3>SYNOPSIS
+</h3> #include &lt;pwd.h&gt;
+ #include &lt;stdio.h&gt;
+ #include &lt;sys/types.h&gt;
+
+ struct passwd *fgetpwent(FILE *stream);
+
+<h3>DESCRIPTION
+</h3> The fgetpwent() function returns a pointer to a structure
+ containing the broken out fields of a line in the file
+ stream. The first time it is called it returns the first
+ entry; thereafter, it returns successive entries. The
+ file stream must have the same format as /etc/passwd.
+
+ The passwd structure is defined in &lt;pwd.h&gt; as follows:
+
+ struct passwd {
+ char *pw_name; /* user name */
+ char *pw_passwd; /* user password */
+ uid_t pw_uid; /* user id */
+ gid_t pw_gid; /* group id */
+ char *pw_gecos; /* real name */
+ char *pw_dir; /* home directory */
+ char *pw_shell; /* shell program */
+ };
+
+<h3>RETURN VALUE
+</h3> The fgetpwent() function returns the passwd structure, or
+ NULL if there are no more entries or an error occurs.
+
+<h3>ERRORS
+</h3> ENOMEM Insufficient memory to allocate passwd structure.
