Each line of this file contains the following colon\-separated fields:
.PP
\fBgruppnamn\fR
.RS 4

.RE
.PP
\fBkrypterat l\(:osenord\fR
.RS 4
Refer to
\fBcrypt\fR(3)
for details on how this string is interpreted\&.
.sp
If the password field contains some string that is not a valid result of
\fBcrypt\fR(3), for instance ! or *, users will not be able to use a unix password to access the group (but group members do not need the password)\&.
.sp
The password is used when a user who is not a member of the group wants to gain the permissions of this group (see
\fBnewgrp\fR(1))\&.
.sp
This field may be empty, in which case only the group members can gain the group permissions\&.
.sp
A password field which starts with an exclamation mark means that the password is locked\&. The remaining characters on the line represent the password field before the password was locked\&.
.sp
This password supersedes any password specified in
/etc/group\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBadministrators\fR
.RS 4
It must be a comma\-separated list of user names\&.
.sp

.sp
Administrators also have the same permissions as the members (see below)\&.
.RE
.PP
\fBmembers\fR
.RS 4
It must be a comma\-separated list of user names\&.
.sp
Members can access the group without being prompted for a password\&.
.sp
You should use the same list of users as in
/etc/group\&.
