Hello all,
How do i take the back up of the files you have mentioned...? I mean on what should I take back up(the destination)? can you show how do you do that?
There is no /etc/shadow file in my mandrake 7.0.
And the reply for "Kelam_magnus" ---->
I did this search
find .. -path "../*" -name "passwd*" but i did not get any positive result.
Just now I got to know that there will be some copies of passwd files in the regular mode but not in the rescue mode(as per my search). Unknowing about this fact I logged out of the normal mode in a haste.
Overall, I made two mistakes
1)Playing with my /etc/passwd file
(tr 'aeioul' 'AEIOUL' > /etc/passwd)Instead of this "<"
2)Logging out of my normal mode in hurry.
Any more help please!
