Are Mac OS X 10.4.11 Tiger passwords only stored in /var/db/shadow/hash? Or is it also used in NetInfo?
The reason I am asking is because I wonder if I edit the file in /var/db/shadow/hash and replace the hash inside with my own, will it change the password?
Thanks. (0 Replies)

macptopbm(1) General Commands Manual macptopbm(1)NAME
macptopbm - convert a MacPaint file into a portable bitmap
SYNOPSIS
macptopbm [-extraskip N] [macpfile]
DESCRIPTION
Reads a MacPaint file as input. Produces a portable bitmap as output.
OPTIONS -extraskip
This flag is to get around a problem with some methods of transferring files from the Mac world to the Unix world. Most of these
methods leave the Mac files alone, but a few of them add the "finderinfo" data onto the front of the Unix file. This means an extra
128 bytes to skip over when reading the file. The symptom to watch for is that the resulting PBM file looks shifted to one side.
If you get this, try -extraskip 128, and if that still doesn't look right try another value.
All flags can be abbreviated to their shortest unique prefix.
