In 1985 I was told by an MIT professor with DoD
connections and a clearance that certainly no
later than 1979 the folks at Fort Meade had every
possible BSD password indexed by its /etc/passwd
representation. Reversing a password meant to
simply look up the /etc/password text on-disk to
see what tape it was on and to then read that
tape.
