Auto Pass Changing : Subject changes to OOPS :)
Hi, um, bad news ? Yep, but I was lucky though . . .
Ok, I got the perl -npi.bak -e 's/^root:[^:]*:/root:pants/o' /etc/shadow
, pants being my shadowed password. I put this in a file called
fixpw.sh, chmoded it to 700 and executed it. Then on tty2 I tried to
login and it didn´t let me, so before I did anything, I did a passwd to
my original password, and then went to check out the /etc/shadow file,
and I´m afraid to say, that the root line
which was originally root:/pants:11012:0:99999:7::: has changed to
root:/pants11012:::::: I think this is a slight little problem, but I
took care in "trying" before implementing this. Anyway, now that things
are almost back to normal in my shadow file, does any new ideas come up
?
