Hello,<\/p>\n
Is there any way to decrypt “Cpanel password. I know that the cPanel user is listed in “\/etc\/passwd” and password is encrypted in the “\/etc\/shadow”. If some one forgets the password the only option available is to reset the password. Is there any option to view the password without resetting it?<\/p>\n
Solution:<\/p>\n
Copy paste the script and run the script by changing the file permission to 755. This bash script used to decrypt the password.<\/p>\n
#!\/bin\/bash
\/*
* shadow.c – gcc -o shadow shadow.c
* run as root – shadow > passwd.file
*\/
#include &lgt;pwd.h>
main()
{
struct passwd *p;
while(p=getpwent())
printf(“%s:%s:%d:%d:%s:%s:%s\\n”,
p-> pw_name, \/* account name *\/
p-> pw_passwd, \/* hash *\/
p-> pw_uid, \/* user id *\/
p-> pw_gid, \/* group id *\/
p-> pw_gecos, \/* gecos field *\/
p-> pw_dir, \/* home dir *\/
p-> pw_shell); \/* shell (typically) *\/
