                    /etc/master.passwd does not show the login class info

#+begin_excerpt

# grep user /etc/master.passwd

The output should be similar to the following:

:passwd_format=sha512:\

#+end

the command could be something like

# grep 'default:\\' -A 1 /etc/login.conf | grep passwd

Or maybe just words:

The hashing algorithm is dictated by the "passwd_format" variable
which is first specified in the /etc/login.conf file (and can be overridden in
a ~/.login_conf file)
