What file contains a list of usernames and the main account domain?

So another thread led me to /etc/domainusers, which is *almost* exactly what I need, except that it contains all the domains in use for each user. What I need is something I can grep from bash that will return a username *once* with its corresponding main domain. Or is there a way to query cPanel's setup somehow to return this from bash? Basically, if you have the username as $user and do grep ': $user' /etc/userdomains
, you get something like example.com: username
- which is perfect, except you get multiple domains if they have addon domains. I need something that will allow me to only get the primary domain associated with an account. Any ideas? :)

  cat /var/cpanel/users/%user% | grep ^DNS= | sed s/^DNS=//g

  Any ideas?

  
  There is much simpler way than using a complex sed and grep combination when there is already a file that has the data that you are looking for. /etc/userdomains contains list of all Addon and Subdomain. If you want just get a list of main account and its user, use trueuserdomains. # cat /etc/trueuserdomains This is the file that contains a list of the main domain and their respective usernames..

  Just to follow up with a few examples: # whmapi1 listaccts search='^cptest$' searchtype=user|grep -oP '(?<=domain: ).+' cptest.tld # grep -oP "[^:]+(?=: cptest$)" /etc/trueuserdomains cptest.tld
