I've got a question concerning DES and MD5 encryption: I've installed my server using DES encryption. Many of our customers are runnung a perl program which uses crypt() to create the passwords for .htaccess files. Since apache doesn't support DES encryptet passwords i'd like to change to MD5 encryption or at least force perl/frontpage to use MD5 (Crypt::PasswdMD5 should be doing this, but instead returns DES encryptet passwords). I couldn't find any hint in the manual how to do it. There aren't many accounts on the server, so i wouldn't mind to create all user accounts again. The only thing I did was changing the links in /usr/lib/ for libcrypt etc. But that didn't help. Any advice welcome!!!
