Software :: Convert An MD5 Hash Into Shadow Format?
Nov 28, 2010I am trying to use John the Ripper but it doesn't take regular MD5 hashes, only shadow MD5 hashes. For example this hash: 900150983cd24fb0d6963f7d28e17f72 (which, decrypted, is 'abc') within a text file, John the Ripper does not detect because it is not shadow format. How can I convert this MD5 hash into shadow format?

Nov 21, 2010I've compiled the latest version of shadow (without PAM and selinux support), but I can't create new users or groups. I don't even get a error.
It's just like:

Slackware :: Create SlackBuilds And Build Them Manually?
Apr 11, 2011I'm using Slackware 13.1. There are some software I need that not presented in repos (e.g GIS software and utilities), so I create SlackBuilds and build them manually.
When compiling some libraries I get problems with libdl - the dynamic linker library. As I understand, this library absolutely required by some other libs.
For some odd reason, it seems that this library is automatically supported on other distros (e.g. Debian), but not on Slackware. As result ./configure script can't find necessary libs and fails with messages like
Code:
checking for sqlite3_prepare_v2 in -lsqlite3... no
configure: error: 'libsqlite3' is required but it doesn't seems to be
installed on this system.

OpenSUSE Install :: Username Pasword Required At Boot - Command For Startup?
Mar 22, 2011I just burned the iso of openSUSe 11.4 onto a dvd, and I make it through all of the installation.

() or something and then just has like my directory or whatever waiting for commands. Is there some command to start up the OS?

View 4 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Shadow File Password Policy?
Oct 1, 2010Today i was going through some of security guides written on linux .Under shadow file security following points were mentioned.1)The encrypted password stored under /etc/shadow file should have more than 14-25 characters.2)Usernames in shadow file must satisfy to all the same rules as usernames in /etc/passwd.3)password for application Username should display * if username is not locked.4)If a user is locked it should be displayed as ! as the first character in second field of shadow file.
Confusion for point 1 and 2:Now i m confused as why the encrypted password should be more than 14-25 characters.Also what rules to satisfy How to check it?Confusion for point 3 and 4:There are lot of users with * as second field i guess they are not locked but according to 4th point there are lot of users with ! as first characters.How would i check whether they are actually locked or not.I m posting the output of /etc/shadow and /etc/passwd files for the account.

General :: Error Cannot Find Disk At [hash-code - Looks Like 0ace5f When Booting OpenSUSE 11.2 GNOME-LIVE (64bit)?
Jan 29, 2010I am in the process of re-DL-ing the ISO as the checksums didn't match.
Mind you, that was with a shell extension in Win-Lose. Who knows.
Anyway:
I have the ISO (that I had previously) on a USB courtesy of UNetBootIn. All appears well until, quite quickly, I receive an error after the loading process which goes something like:
Code:
Error: cannot find disk at [hash-code - looks like 0ace5f etc etc, is about 12 char's in length.]Something very similar (but not same error I think) happened when I tried to do the same with my OpenSolaris or Fedora install. I.e., gets as far as the very beginning of the loader and then: bork.
At least one of them said "will reboot in 120 secs". Saves me the trouble!

Aug 6, 2010I'm running RHEL 5. When using the GUI System>Administration>Users and Groups, I get the error: The user database cannot be read. This problem is most likely caused by a mismatch between /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow or /etc/group and /etc/gshadow. The program will exit now.
Some research showed that I need to use vipw and vigr respectively to find an inconsistency between these two sets, which I did - to make it easy I copied each from [vipw | vigr] to an excel file and did =exact(%1, %2). There are no inconsistencies.

View 2 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Set DNS Manually On KDE?
Feb 2, 2010The Network Manager on KDE gets DNS configuration from DHCP and sets it automatically, but I would like to use the Google Public DNS. If I overwrite /etc/resolv.conf with nameserver 8.8.8.8 it still resolves names with the old DNS (probably cached in memory) and, of course, even if it worked, it would be annoying having to do that every time I connect to a network.
I've noticed the Network Manager lets you specify a fixed DNS with the rest being taken from DHCP, but that's on a per network basis, and I would like to set it once for whichever network I connect to (if you're on the go with a laptop that becomes an issue).
