NAME
       cpu - A tool for user and group administration

SYNOPSIS
       cpu [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION
       CPU  is	a  tool	 for  user administration, that was initially based on
       FreeBSD's pw(8). This tool will	allow  you  to	administer  users  and
       groups  on several different backends currently including LDAP and flat
       files. Please  see  the	website	 http://cpu.sourceforge.net  for  more
       information, or help improve the man page.

OPTIONS
       There  are  two	kinds  of options; options for CPU and options for CPU
       modules.	 There are only four options for CPU, they are as follows:

       -C configfile, --config configfile
	      The configuration file to be used by CPU. The  options  in  this
	      file are used for CPU modules.

       -h, --help
	      Display  help  for  CPU. If specified in conjunction with the -m
	      option the help for that particular module is displayed.

       -M method, --method=method
	      This is the method of administration. Current options  are  ldap
	      or  passwd (passwd is not yet working). This can be specified in
	      the configuration file.

       -V, --version
	      Display the version of the software.
