These calls were intending to copy from a NUL-padded (possibly non-NUL-terminated) character sequences contained in fixed-width arrays, into a string, where extra padding is superfluous. Use the appropriate call, which removes the superfluous work. That reduces the chance of confusing maintainers about the intention of the code. While at it, use the appropriate third parameter, which is the size of the source buffer, and not the one of the destination buffer. As a side effect, this reduces the use of '-1', which itself reduces the chance of off-by-one bugs. Also, since using sizeof() on an array is dangerous, use SIZEOF_ARRAY().

shadow-utils
Introduction
The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command unconverts shadow passwords and generates a passwd file (a standard UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands are used for managing group accounts.
