NAME

       tac_pwd - generate DES or MD5 encryption of a password

SYNOPSIS

       tac_pwd [-ehm] [salt]

DESCRIPTION

       tac_pwd  prompts for a clear-text password and produces a DES encryption of that password on stdout which
       may be used in lieu of the clear-text representation in the tac_plus.conf(5).

       The DES salt may be provided as a command-line argument.

COMMAND-LINE OPTIONS

       -e     Do not echo the plain-text password to the terminal.

       -h     Display help message.

       -m     Generate an MD5 encryption, instead of DES.  This only works if crypt() on your host supports MD5.
