We have an old RH7.3 server that holds all of our user accounts.
I'm in the process of upgrading everything to FC10 and looking at
/etc/shadow I'm noticing some differences in the way the passwords are
encrypted/stored.
RH7.3's string looks like this:
$1$9cgDnjV/$SLqsoxfwr6tr3o7QkdQ3j1
Whereas FC10 looks like:
$6$KS2xrBPJ$jXiz1pE9Lpcb8sSSU0ZHifeN9wBwc.k7GdWO4KIJ3F2JqEw/1mD7bPO6b4jvRXiyXrQn0noWPfs.0h6/tjKbe0
I tried simply copying the old shadow file to a new FC10 server and
it seems to work just fine, however I wonder if I'm not breaking
something else by doing that. So, what's the proper way to do this? I
really don't want to have to reset everyone's password (at least not
till they reach their forced expiration.)
Thanks.
