We'll use the <code>strgen</code> module that enables a user to generate test data, unique ids, passwords, vouchers or other randomized data very quickly using a template language. The template language is superficially similar to regular expressions but instead of defining how to match or capture strings, it defines how to generate randomized strings.</p> System Authentication against /etc/shadow or /etc/passwd (Python) 2013-03-11T12:40:10-07:00James Millshttp://code.activestate.com/recipes/users/4167757/http://code.activestate.com/recipes/578489-system-authentication-against-etcshadow-or-etcpass/ <p style="color: grey"> Python recipe 578489 by <a href="/recipes/users/4167757/">James Mills</a> (<a href="/recipes/tags/authentication/">authentication</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/password/">password</a>, <a href="/recipes/tags/system/">system</a>). </p> <p>Sometimes it's useful to perform System Authentication against a Local System using the /etc/shadow or /etc/passwd password databases.
