Hi,

I was looking at the crypt(3) manpage, and I'm having a hard time figuring
out what the allowed characters are for the salt in md5 and blowfish
encryption.  For DES, it clearly states that only numbers, letters and
digits may be used.

Does anyone know the rules for md5/blowfish salt characters?

Thanks,

Charles
