Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-isp@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Hi fellow ISPs; I need to find out what a user's previous password (the one before the current user's password) was because I have a customer who had problem loging to our system because of incorrect password and the customer inssists that he did not forget his password. For now I have reset his password (by taking a laptop to his office and loging to server through ssh and let him punch his new password so only he knows it). However I need to convince (and restore his confidence on our operations) this customer that he realy did lose his password. Where in the FreeBSD system files can I find clues as to what his previous password was? I know a FreeBSD system keeps track of all activities and has answers to almost everything, well hope somebody has run in to this problem before I did and has clue for me.
