# unafs(8)

script to warn users about their weak passwords

## NAME

unafs - script to warn users about their weak passwords

## SYNOPSIS

**unafs** *password-files cell-name*

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **unafs** command, which is part of the john package. This manual page was written for the Debian GNU/Linux distribution because the original program does not have a manual page. **john**, better known as John the Ripper, is a tool to find weak passwords of users in a server.\
 The **unafs** tool gets password hashes out of the binary AFS database, and produces a file usable by John.

## SEE ALSO

[**john**(8)](/john/8.md), [**mailer**(8)](/mailer/8.md), [**unique**(8)](/unique/8.md), [**unshadow**(8)](/unshadow/8.md).

The programs are documented fully by John's documentation, which should be available in */usr/share/doc/john* or other location, depending on your system.
