password checker

[Michael J. Chinni, SMCAR-CCS-E]

Hi,

	Does anyone have or know where I can get a program to encrypt a set of
clear-text trial passwords using all the seeds used in /etc/passwd, and then
compare the encryptions with the encrypted passwords in /etc/passwd ?

	My list of trial passwords will NOT have lots of words, just the more
simple ones (all lower-case, all letters, 5-8 chars. long, all real words).
