wrong.
Can you please show me how to generate the password hashes?


You can add new account with one command like this:

echo user_password |pw user add new_user -h0

Also if you only want to generate valid password hash
you can use 'openssl passwd -1 new_password'

Thank you, this is the command I was looking for.

There are many tools; I use security/makepasswd.

How to generate password hashes for vipw and chpass

2008-10-05 Thread Ivan Rambius Ivanov
Hello,

According to man pages of chpass(1) and vipw(1)  I can create and
modify users by supplying a user database entry in passwd(5) format.
The only problem I face is that I do not know how to generate the
password hashes for the password field.

Following section 14.4
[http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en/books/handbook/crypt.html] from the
handbook I found out that my system is using md5 to encrypt the
passwords. I tried to use /sbin/md5 to generate the hash:

# /sbin/md5 -s newpassword

and then I passed the output to chpass. I tried to use the new
password for the next login but it failed - so I believe this is
wrong.

Can you please show me how to generate the password hashes?

Regards
Rambius
