I was just wondering, is it possible to export the raw text password into a file using echo "$password" >> /home/user/Desktop/file name
. I know that the password is validated against the shadow file
by pam_unix.so
. Can the username and password exported before the raw text is being converted?

If You are able to hook into the process directly after pressing enter in console-logon, then You might have a chance. As You are making LFS, You are relatively free to add/remove/change much stuff, which gives You a handful of options. I think, tty-login or something like this must be spotted to hook into it, I only could say, how to read crypted pw from shadow. – icbytes Mar 11 '15 at 08:42

Of course you can substitute the login(1) command with one of your own and do the thing. You are in an opensource system. You are free to reprogram it. I have done it for fun. You can do also.
