Thanks for your interest.
Well, the problem with getpwent() is that i can't 
retrive hash from master.passwd, 
I can use it, only to parse passwd file.
But i also need to parse master.passwd to obtain 
the hash and to crypt user password and obtain 
the hash.
I need more specific help about those two.
