Hi guys,
I'm trying to update passwords in /etc/shadow with puppet.
I've installed the ruby lib shadow library and am using the following sample
puppet syntax:
----
user { "seb":
gid => "30",
ensure => present,
membership => inclusive,
groups => [ "users" ],
password => "foofoo"
}
---
result from /etc/shadow:
seb:foofoo:14336:0:99999:7:::
now the problem is, that the foofoo password is expected to be in encrypted
form. Is there anyway to get "foofoo" password in encrypted form?
Cleartext: foofoo
Cypertext: ???
I've found references to mkpasswd, but this does not exist in SLES, and
doesn't generate Blowfish passwords anyway. I've tried a variety of Perl
one-liners, but can't seem to get the right combination.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards, Sebastian.
