Fedora Core 4 Shadow-Utils Update: Moderate Threat Advisory FEDORA-2006-135

The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for

converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus

programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command

converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command

unconverts shadow passwords and generates an npasswd file (a standard

UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password

and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times

for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for

managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands

are used for managing group accounts.
