The FrontPage Extensions require an apache server built with the descrypt library.

This library is part of the FreeBSD crypto sources.  There are several ways to obtain this library:

1. CVSUP and make world

    add one of the following to your cvsup file:


        FreeBSD 3.x:

        #uncomment if retrieving sources from outside US/CA
        #*default  host=internat.freebsd.org
        src-crypto
        src-secure

        FreeBSD 4.x:

        #uncomment if retrieving sources from outside US/CA
        #*default  host=internat.freebsd.org
        cvs-crypto

    Then do the following:

        make update
        make world

    NOTE: you may want to set NODESCRYPTLINKS in your make.conf,
               depending on if you want des/md5 passwords.

2.  Obtain the pre-built libraries from the RELEASE/SNAP distribution:

    FreeBSD 3.x:

    1. Obtain the des.?? files from the des directory of the distribution.
    2. As root, extract the libdescrypt.* libraries into /usr/lib.

        cat des.?? | tar -C / -xpzvf - usr/lib/libdescrypt.*

    FreeBSD 4.x:

    1. Obtain the crypto.?? files from the crypto directory of the distribution.
    2. As root, extract the libdescrypt.* libraries into /usr/lib.

        cat crypto.?? | tar -C / -xpzvf - usr/lib/libdescrypt.*


Also, the FreeBSD apache13-fp port is currently broken due to the recent upgrade of the fp exts by Microsoft/RTR.  A patch has been
submitted to fix the problem, but it hasn't been applied.
