hai , I am creating an address database script,I need to create a shadow password when user enter in command line.
welcome all if any help related to this.
 


I'm not sure what you mean by Shadow password, but if you want to get a password from a user in a shell script and hide what the user types you can do this:
Code:
echo -n "Enter password: "
read -s passwordVariable
The -s parameter to read prevents read from echoing what the user types. So when they enter their password, it will not be shown on-screen...

Hope this helps!
