SYNOPSIS
openssl passwd [-crypt] [-1] [-apr1] [-salt string] [-in file] [-stdin]
[-quiet] [-table] [password]
OPTIONS
Uses the crypt algorithm (default). Uses the MD5 based BSD password
algorithm 1. Uses the apr1 algorithm (Apache variant of the BSD algo‐
rithm). Uses the specified salt. Reads passwords from file. Reads
passwords from stdin. Does not output warnings when passwords given at
the command line are truncated. Prepends the cleartext password and a
TAB character to each password hash in the output list.

the hash of each password in a list. The password list is taken from
the named file for option -infile, from stdin for option -stdin, and
from the command line. The UNIX standard algorithm crypt and the
MD5-based BSD password algorithm 1 and its Apache variant apr1 are
available.
