Product     : Fedora Core 6
Name        : shadow-utils
Version     : 4.0.17
Release     : 7.fc6
Summary     : Utilities for managing accounts and shadow password files.
Description :
The shadow-utils package includes the necessary programs for
converting UNIX password files to the shadow password format, plus
programs for managing user and group accounts. The pwconv command
converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command
unconverts shadow passwords and generates an npasswd file (a standard
UNIX password file). The pwck command checks the integrity of password
and shadow files. The lastlog command prints out the last login times
for all users. The useradd, userdel, and usermod commands are used for
managing user accounts. The groupadd, groupdel, and groupmod commands
are used for managing group accounts.

  one of these (I think /usr/sbin/mkpasswd but other opinions are valid)

  confuse pam_pwdb anymore ('!!' default password instead on '!')

- the check for the ut_user is now patched into configure
* Thu Nov 13 1997 Erik Troan <ewt at redhat.com>
- added patch for XOPEN oddities in glibc headers
- check for ut_user before checking for ut_name -- this works around some
  confusion on glibc 2.1 due to the utmpx header not defining the ut_name
  compatibility stuff. I used a gross sed hack here because I couldn't make
  automake work properly on the sparc (this could be a glibc 2.0.99 problem
  though). The utuser patch works fine, but I don't apply it.
- sleep after running autoconf
* Thu Nov  6 1997 Cristian Gafton <gafton at redhat.com>
