[Ilugc] Enabling MD5 passwords in RedHat 7.2

I'm not able to login after installation of Redhat 7.2 on my linux box.

        You forgot the password you mean ? You could try the single user mode
thing, change the password and then do what you have to.

In one of the documents, I read that I need to enable MD5 passwords
and shadow passwords during installation.

Is there any way to enable them after installation?

        Yes, run 'setup' and choose 'Authentication Configuration'



        Regards,

                Ravi
