A suggestion I found on the net is to test for the value of md5sum /etc/passwd. Now, does this stay the same, even if a password is added or changed? Is it unique to a computer? And also, how do I isolate the number and strip off the space and "/etc/passwd" from the result? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
