Hi, The code given below will fetch the all the users and its corresponding shell info and copies in a file. Then sends this file to the desired mailing address. #!/bin/bash filename=/tmp/passwdinfo.txt while read line do username=`echo $line | cut -d":" -f1` shellname=`echo $line | cut -d":" -f7` echo "User: $username" >>$filename echo -e "Shell: $shellname\n" >>$filename done</etc/passwd echo "Mailing information" cat $filename | mail -s "SUBJECT" mail@xxxxxxxx # For sending file as attachment, uncomment the below line and comment the above. mutt -a $filename -s "SUBJECT" mail@xxxxxxxx [ $? = 0 ] && echo "mail sent successfully."; rm -vf $filename || echo "Error while sending mail." Hope this helps. Regards, Kurian Thayil.
