I see a hashed passphrase like the following in
/etc/shadow
. I don't quite understand its format.
$y$j9T$F5Jx5fExrKuPp53xLKQ..1$X3DX6M94c7o.9agCG9G317fhZg9SqC.5i5rd.RhAtQ7
It is made of four parts as shown below. According to crypt(5)
, y
means yescrypt
.
https://manpages.debian.org/unstable/libcrypt-dev/crypt.5.en.html
- y
- j9T
- F5Jx5fExrKuPp53xLKQ..1
- X3DX6M94c7o.9agCG9G317fhZg9SqC.5i5rd.RhAtQ7
What is the meaning of the last three parts?
