Setting a user without password.

Hey men!! How are you doing? I’m gonna write about users and its way of login.
There are many ways to access to the system and some reasons to implement one of those below.

On These days a big friend of mine asked me if I knew how to take the password out of a user. In other words, He didn’t want password builting into a user.

Great, It seemed to me a bit strange but I’ll post if anyone else would by chance need to implement it.

1 – open through vi command the file /etc/passwd
2- search for the user line.
3- Cut the “x” character out.
4 – Then save the file while get out of here :wq
