- I remember reading awhile back on how to add encryption in the passwd file.
- I lost the copy of the file and I would know like to add this feature.
-
- Does anyone know how this can be done? Do I just need to add the crypt function
- to one of the libraries and then change the login program so it calls
- getpass. I would then crypt the passwd and then compare it to the encrypted
- copy in the passwd file. Is this all I need to do or is there more. Any help
- would be appreciated.
