Nov 12, 2015 at 20:23 comment added scree I ´ve tried generate sha-512 hash by php $pass = crypt("myPassword" , "$6$FixedSalt")** but when I do again **useradd -p "$pass" <username>** - what i see in **/etc/shadow** looks still different hash (there is no $6$ at the beginning and it is short). I thinked maybe my PHP hash not corresponds the valid Unix format? What finally worked for me, was hashing inside my bash **openssl passwd -crypt Test007 -> output me: "jc44wHaeucnHI" than I can login with password "Test007" to my new user. Can I find similiar function as openssl in PHP?
