I recall being asked if I wanted to use shadow tables when setting up an ubuntu server install. I don't think I was asked about it when I installed ubuntu on a laptop recently. I think the problem is that I am the linux expert here. My co-worker (who set these up before I got here) uses mac at home and I've grown up using windows but have been casually playing with linux for the last few years. So between our ignorance we're getting some silly mistakes, like assigning "encrypted" passwords in plaintext and not knowing to save the modifications to iptables after adding rules, etc. -- John D.
