ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use CGI qw(:all);
use strict;
my $name;
my $passwd;
my $cryptpasswd;
my $name=param('name');
my $passwd=param('passwd');
chomp $name;
chomp $passwd;
if (my $name eq "")
{ print "Please input your name!\n"; exit;}
you using lots of variables that you havent declared.
Also, your declaring variables twice with the use of the 'my' statement
I think you should declare all your vars up to with 'my'
You dont use 'my' every time you use the var there after.
Also, i think what your trying to do with:
$shadow=;
would be better written as
$shadow=<PASSWD>;
That should read the file into the $shadow variable.
The next next line will then 'split' the var into separate elements and stick these in the @shadow array.
Also, what is $passwdshadow in the line:
if ((my $name eq $user) && (my $cryptpasswd eq $passwdshadow)) { print "Thanks!\n"; exit;}
this is the only time you've used this var so $cryptpasswd will never be equal to $passwdshadow
