o What are .db files ? Yes you are right. They are Berckley DB 2.X hash/ Little Endian files. These are binary files and have been kept so to for security reasons, and aviod any tampering. o You need to know the exact composition of the stream to do any worthwile extraction. Don't know what you need extracted from there. It is better to work from the source level which would be at /etc/access (text file) from where the .db file has been created.
