Subject:   /etc/login.conf + passwd_format + new? MD5 default?
Message-ID:  <20000928165727.M22260@reptiles.org>

next in thread | raw e-mail | index | archive | help

as per my last message, i discovered that an entry of:

   :passwd_format=des:

in /etc/login.conf will reset the crypts back to DES.

note: passwd_format is not documented anywhere close to adequately to
inform people of its function.

also, is the new default for FreeBSD going to be MD5?
if so, a note should be made somewhere.
