Hi,
Could someone tell me how to send the output of pwck to a file?
I have tried "pwck > file", but doesn't work.
TIA.

You need to do : Quote:> redirects only STDOUT , not the STDERR.

Howdy.
Try using the "tee" command.
In this case, try something like:
pwck | & tee -a file
where the "file" is wherever you want the output from the command to be.
Also, look at the 'script' command...

pwck only ever has output when there IS a problem, therefore it will come
out on STDERR (file descriptor 2)
therefore to capture output you have to re-direct SDTERR
pwck 2>/tmp/pwck.out
