Well I can't say for sure on all versions, but I do know that it's
actually pretty easy to get the password file for SCO if you know what
you are looking for. There are actually two sets of user logs, the encrypted
file which is easy to find but nearly impossible to crack, and the shadow
password file, which is hard to find, but fairly easy to get into. I have
a buddy who knows quite a bit about this and was able to hack a unix system
successfully. The real problem is actually getting onto the system in the
first place especially if ALL the users have passwords assigned by the root.
