To check a password in Linux, you can use the command line utility ‘passwd’. This utility can be used to view and change the password for an individual user. To view the password for a specific user, you can use the command:
passwd username
This command will prompt you to enter the user’s current password to view the password, and then you can view the encrypted version of the password.
