AUTH.CONF(5) FreeBSD File Formats Manual AUTH.CONF(5) NAME auth.conf - authentication capability database SYNOPSIS /etc/auth.conf DESCRIPTION auth.conf contains various attributes important to the authentication code, most notably kerberos(5) for the time being. This documentation will be updated as the /etc/auth.conf file, which is very new, evolves. SEE ALSO auth_getval(3) Doesn't tell me much. :-( And the auth.conf file is somewhat mysterious, too: # # $FreeBSD: src/etc/auth.conf,v 1.4.2.1 2001/07/13 14:37:26 dd Exp $ # # This file contains information on what types of authentication to use. # It is just the beginnings of a greater scheme. # crypt_default = md5 des # auth_list = passwd kerberos auth_list = passwd Tom Haapanen tomh@metrics.com -----Original Message----- From: iNDiAN [mailto:indian@pcbtech.ru] Sent: Friday, 12 October, 2001 14:09 To: Haapanen, Tom Subject: Re: FreeBSD 4.4 and DES > Has anyone successfully got DES working with FreeBSD 4.4?

Or at least that's what my net.research tells me. maybe `man auth.conf` be of help To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-security" in the body of the message
