Well, i did:
............................................
include<sys/types.h>
#include<pwd.h>
extern int errno;
int main()
{
char *name="dan";
struct passwd *password;
int uid;
password=getpwnam(name);
if(!password)
{
perror("getpwnam failed");
exit(1);
}
uid=password->pw_uid;
printf("Uid: %d, passwd:
%s\n",uid,password->pw_passwd);
exit(0);
}
.........................................
bash-2.05b$ ./a.out
Uid: 1001, passwd: *
........................................
I get passwd field from /etc/passwd.which
is '*' for every user, not the hash
from /etc/master.passwd.
Where am i wrong?
