Thanks Bernard I tried patching the shadow file but couldn't make it work
My requirement is specific ,wanted to modify /etc/shadow file of rootfs I don't know how /etc/shadow file is getting generated in my rootfs,though I know the whole Process of how /etc/passwd file is generated in my roofs . Inside poky I have a recipe file which will generally fetches the passwd.master from web and copy it to /etc/passwd file of my rootfs . But couldn't find any such process for /etc/shadow file I have to disable one of the user account and that requires asterisk(*) to be put in second column of user-specific line. For example in /etc/shadow have to change my_user::0:0.... to my_ user:*:0:0... + Khem Raj here as he made most of work of shadow packaging in poky Thanks Rajan On Sun, Nov 24, 2013 at 5:19 AM, Bernard Mentink <bment...@gmail.com> wrote: > Just make a /recipe-extended/ directory in your layer so it looks the same > as the original.
