This is a Perl script I wrote to locate dead clients (those which are
owned by unknown P4 users). It can also tell you what clients a user
owns so you can delete clients before you delete the user.
I've run into what I thought were dead clients, but were actually still
in use by a user other than the current client owner so you have to
exercise a little caution when deleting dead clients.
I've tested this under NT only. I tried to anticipate non-NT p4 servers
by adding a --case option. The code defaults to --nocase but the
default can be easily changed. Run with --help to get a full list of
the options.
I'm new to Perl so forgive my coding style. I'm not in this email group
so you'll have to send any comments directly to me.
