How do I output /etc/passwd and save it in a sorted file in assessc called users.txt

Time：03-11

I am able to run the command /etc/passwd but how do I save it as a text file in my folder assessc, what would the path be as it is a users folder.

CodePudding user response：

You can do it with the following

cat /etc/passwd | sort >> /home/assessc/textfile

You need to replace the path with that of your folder

Optimized version of the other answer:

sort -o /home/assessc/textfile /etc/passwd

no need to cat and redirection
