oracular (8) shadowconfig.8.gz

Provided by: passwd_4.15.3-3ubuntu2_amd64 bug

NAME

       shadowconfig - toggle shadow passwords on and off

SYNOPSIS

       shadowconfig on | off

DESCRIPTION

       shadowconfig on will turn shadow passwords on; shadowconfig off will turn shadow passwords
       off.  shadowconfig will print an error message and exit with a nonzero code if it finds
       anything awry. If that happens, you should correct the error and run it again. Turning
       shadow passwords on when they are already on, or off when they are already off, is
       harmless.

       Read /usr/share/doc/passwd/README.Debian for a brief introduction to shadow passwords and
       related features.

       Note that turning shadow passwords off and on again will lose all password aging
       information.
