It seems that the download links have changed.  In the meantime, you
might find a copy on one of the LFS mirrors - I found it here:
ftp://ftp.lfs-matrix.net/pub/lfs/lfs-packages/conglomeration/shadow

In times past I've found it useful to do a linux google search with the
package name and +Slackware.
http://www.google.ca/linux

I've also found gentoo to be useful as well - their mirrors also have 
tarballs and reading the ebuilds can be quite instructive.

Best of luck,
ae
