-# turn shadow passwords on or off on a Debian system
+#
+#       'shadowconfig on' will turn shadow passwords on;
+#       'shadowconfig off' will turn shadow passwords off.
+#
+#       shadowconfig will print an error message and exit with
+#       a nonzero code if it finds anything awry.  If that happens,
+#       you should correct the error and run it again.
+#
+#       Turning shadow passwords on when they are already on, or
+#       off when they are already off, is harmless.
+#
+#       Be aware that account expiration dates are only supported
+#       by shadow passwords -- these dates will be lost when converting
+#       from shadow to non-shadow passwords.  If you need to save this
+#       information, back up your /etc/shadow before turning off
+#       shadow passwords.
