I’m learning about users and groups. The presenter just discussed the Passwd and Shadow commands.
I have two questions:
1) When using Passwd, why do I see only a placeholder (“x”) and not the actual password?
2) Has the use of Passwd changed? When I googled Passwd, the Geeks for Geeks website tells me that command will indeed change a user’s password. https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/linux-unix/passwd-command-in-linux-with-examples/
