which field of the /etc/passwd file holds the passwords for users?

Depends if you have shadow on or not (Right?)

I was reading about this a few days ago. Mine looks like this (in shadow, that isn't my real password, I changed a few of the letters

)
It's this part I think (encrypted)

I think that's right but am not sure.

What configuration file does init look to?

Your question was a bit indecisive but I'll say /etc/init.d.

Now this is the easiest of all questions in Linux Quiz ever:

From a terminal, what key would you press to see a list of all your apps installed.

And since youll pretty much be stuck at a screen listing over 2000 programs, what key/keys would you press to exit.

I think it's /etc/inittab, if i'm wrong, don't 0wn me

You can press tab, and then press 'q' or 'control+c'

Question:

Update the rpm database
