Got access to /../../.passwd

So I don't want to say the website for personal reasons but I got access to some information

from the //////////////////////////////////.passwd

I see information like


annohe:sa.........
uki:y....b....

I censored some of the information but what do I do some from here they are clearly username and password but doesn't work in the login ?

I am still learning can someone help instead of calling me a script kiddie or some shit.

I assume its /e.t.c/ passwd you talk about.

The /e.t.c/ passwd does not contain any passwords. It contains username, home folder and if it got shell access or not.
The passwords are located in /etc/shadow, which is only readable by root ( which is the highest administrator in linux ).

(remove the . in e.t.c )
Go to Google and start again, u r in the beginning of hacking

I have searched google. Also it seems you know nothing about web hacking since you wont even help.

No im not talking about

/etc/passwd

its //.passwd
It's a file on the root folder?

Does pwd give you //.passwd?

You wrote /../../ - Notice the periods - are those just non important directories or what?
Oderint, dum metuant.

http://website.com//////////////////////...///.passwd

then I get a user and password but I am unsure to what

it's not /../../
If those logins don't work maybe they are accounts for something else or maybe they are salted or something. Not really sure. Maybe PM me the contents of the file (or post) and I might be able to help. You haven't told us what site they are for so we can't really go and use them effectively
