mkpasswd

MKPASSWD(8)						      System Manager's Manual						       MKPASSWD(8)

NAME

       mkpasswd - generate hashed password table

SYNOPSIS

       mkpasswd [ -p ] passwdfile

DESCRIPTION

       Mkpasswd is used to generated the hashed password database used by the password library routines (see getpwent(3)).

       The  file  passwdfile  must  be	in  password  file format (see passwd(5)).  Mkpasswd generates database files named ``passwdfile.pag'' and
       ``passwdfile.dir'' (see ndbm(3)).  Data subsequently taken from the database files differ from passwdfile  in  one  respect.   Rather  than
       storing the encrypted password in the database, mkpasswd stores the offset of the encrypted password in passwdfile.

       Mkpasswd exits zero on success, non-zero on failure.

       The -p option causes mkpasswd to create ``passwdfile.orig'', a password file in the standard Version 7 format.
