How can I make a script with API that can check if username and password are correct or not?

The problem is that passwords are only available in a one-way encode on the server. So the only way to check is to try it.
Well, actually you can; there are libraries that will encode a password for you; you can then check it against the encode saved when the password is first entered. How good are your c++ skills
?

I was writing about using the existing linux library calls from c++.
However, it turns out I'm wrong. There actually is an API procedure for verifying a password.
It probably tries the encode the way I mentioned.
