Re: [cobalt-users] Retrieving passwords

[Marco Baurdoux <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi David,

For security reason this is not possible, since all the passwords are
shadow. The only way you could keep track of the passwords would be to
modify the perl script to stock the passwords in the "user" table of the
Postgres database, but it is a tough one. ( not hard, but will take a lot of
time, since there are tons and tons of includes )
