   If you can't hunt up a copy of Satan on your own, you're too stupid to 
be messing with Unix.  What would you do once you had the password file?  
Do you have a good cracker program and dictionaries to do 
encrypt-and-compare against it?   Are you familiar with one-way 
encryption at all?  Are you the product of one too many bad 'hacker' 
movies?  Did you think "War Games" was an accurate portayal of computer 
technology and hacking?  ;-)

    Hackers are almost by definition programers or computer engineering 
people.  Hacking is a skill, not something you download in a file.  Take 
a programming course or two to start, perhaps read some Unix manuals.
