in thread SCALAR output instead of attribute name.

I wasn't looking for portability across platforms, I was looking for something to work on multiple remote hosts. Unless I rework the script into a client-server design, this still doesn't look like it'll work for me. As it stands (and for simplicity sake), I'm cating /etc/passwd over ssh, and parsing what is returned.

-s.

    With ssh or scp, you can send your portable script to your account on each host. Then when you want to poll hosts for their user accounts, ssh -2 user@host ./myscript.pl for each host in your polling script.

    No client/server involved but portability matters.
