Hi, obviously there is a reason for setpassent() being deprecated I'm wondering what is the best thing to do to port an application from Linux to FreeBSD that uses the fgetpwent() function that allows you to specify an alternate password database to read from. What other alternatives to setpassent() exist? Curiosity also brings me to ask why setpassent() is deprecated (which may answer the former question as well).
