The pwconv command +converts passwords to the shadow password format. The pwunconv command +unconverts shadow passwords and generates a passwd 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. + +## Sites +* [Homepage](https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow) +* [Issue tracker](https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/issues) +* [Releases](https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/releases) + +## Contacts +There are several ways to contact us: +* [the general discussion mailing list]( + https://alioth-lists.debian.net/mailman/listinfo/pkg-shadow-devel) +* the #shadow IRC channel on libera.chat: + * irc://irc.libera.chat/shadow + +### Mailing archives +* [the general discussion mailing list archive]( + https://alioth-lists.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-shadow-devel/) +* [the commit mailing list archive]( + https://alioth-lists-archive.debian.net/pipermail/pkg-shadow-commits/), + only used for historical purposes + +## Authors and maintainers +Authors and maintainers are listed in [AUTHORS.md]( +https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/blob/master/AUTHORS.md). |
