Subject: Re: OpenUnix 8 hash format is not the normal DES?

Solar Designer,
  
  Thank you for reply, I'm very happy to exchange a e-mail with you that in my opinion is a hacker legend. :)

  I looked at it before post, but not sure....

  Hummm... documentation from SCO OpenUnix say that the password files are /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow using DES. :(

  Files having the string root I looked without sucess. Any other trick for what look?

>Do you have a directory called "tcb" anywhere on the system - inside
>/etc or not?
    
  Yes, the /etc/security/tcb which contains the files  .prv.lock, oprivs and privs. 
    
  - The .prv.lock is a empity file.
    
  - The oprivs have some lines like:
  19428:4010:1101314868:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/usr/bin/ln
  90960:3967:1101314720:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/sbin/ln
  19428:4010:1101314868:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/usr/bin/cp
  90960:3967:1101314720:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/sbin/cp
    
  - The privs have some lines like:
  19428:4010:1101314868:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/usr/bin/ln
  90960:3967:1101314720:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/sbin/ln
  19428:4010:1101314868:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/usr/bin/cp
  90960:3967:1101314720:%inher,macread,macwrite,dacread,dacwrite,owner,compat,fsysrange,filesys:/sbin/cp
    
  For me it doesn't appear to be realted with password encryption.

  Ok, I will make it, thank you for the suggestion.

  It's a old custom...hehe
