I am working from this script that was posted last week and attempting to
shorten it into a quick one line Perl command; something like this:
# perl -e 'crypt(password,$1$HsKZkjLV$)'
But I am getting an error message:
"Scalar found where operator expected at -e line 1, near "$1$HsKZkjLV"
(Missing operator before $HsKZkjLV?)"
I've tried a couple permutations with no luck. Anybody see a good way to
phrase this?
