NOTES
       If you are attempting to add the /etc/passwd and /etc/group files to
       the A&A database, save them before running ux_to_aa.

       As ux_to_aa exits at the first error it encounters, run authck(1m)
       first to verify that ux_to_aa has a valid pre-existing A&A database
       to add to.

       ux_to_aa processes groups before users.  If ux_to_aa fails while
       processing the groupfile, you must edit the groupfile to remove the
       entries ux_to_aa cannot process.

       Similarly with processing the passwdfile, ux_to_aa will fail at the
       first user it cannot process.  In this case, too, you must edit the
       passwdfile to remove the entries ux_to_aa cannot process.

       ux_to_aa reports duplicate group and user ids and always keeps the
       entry in the pre-existing A&A database.

       Always run authck(1m) after ux_to_aa successfully completes.

       ux_to_aa only processes the entries in the specified source files.
       If you want to include groups and users from the NIS domain, do the
       following:
            $ su
            # ypcat group > domain.group
            # ypcat passwd > domain.passwd
            # vi domain.passwd
            # vi domain.group
            # authck
            # ux_to_aa domain.passwd domain.group
            # authck
