The registry API provides calls to obtain registry entries in a UNIX compatible structure. These APIs return account and group entries similar to the getpwnam, getgrnam, getpwuid, and getgrid UNIX library routines. These APIs, which can be called by the corresponding UNIX library routines to ensure compatibility with UNIX programs, are
· sec_rgy_unix_getpwnam( )
