But these are in /etc/passwd There is no /etc/shadow file.

I would like to convert all of my
Debian 2.0 and 2.2 systems to MD5
shadow passwords. If I understand
the docs correctly all that needs doing
is to add md5 to the apropriate lines
in /etc/pam.d/passwd and /etc/pam.d/login.
Is this correct?

Hello,

Then I changed the root password after deleting the 'x' in root's

Could anyone point out where I might find the required
