If you are using md5 password hashing for master.passwd then you can use
the command:
# md5 -s "mypassword"
This should show you what the string ``mypassword'' will hash to using
md5.  However, the other options are des and blf (blowfish).  To see
which you are using check the paramter passwd_format in /etc/login.conf.
I don't know what you would use to figure the others, at least not
through bash.
