From the man page on sunos4:

DESCRIPTION
     getpwent(), getpwuid() and getpwnam() each return a  pointer
     to  an  object  with  the following structure containing the
     fields of a line in the password file.   Each  line  in  the
     file  contains  a  passwd structure, declared in the <pwd.h>
     header file:
 
          struct    passwd {
               char *pw_name;
               char *pw_passwd;
               uid_t     pw_uid;
               gid_t     pw_gid;
               int  pw_quota;
               char *pw_comment;
               char *pw_gecos;
               char *pw_dir;
               char *pw_shell;
          };
          struct passwd *getpwent(), *getpwuid(), *getpwnam();
