How to decrypt /etc/shadow file password string

(1/1)

sandeepvson:
HI,
I want to see if it is possible to decrypt and view string contained in /etc/shadow file.
Is there any command or shell function for decryption.
Thanks in Advance...

gauravbajaj:
As per my knowledge ... you can't decrypt md5  . So there is no way to decrypt /etc/shadow file......

dragoncity99:
There's only unshadow or shadow the /etc/passwd.

Shadow /etc/shadow
# pwconv

UnShadow /etc/ shadow
# pwunconv
