I know this is the never-ending, never-solved problem, but once more, I 
find myself building a new server and running into the same old problems.

   FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE
   apache-2.0.54_2
   frontpage-5.0.2.2635
   mod_frontpage2-5.0.2.2635

Everything appears to be installed correctly (permissions, ownership, 
config files, etc), but I can not, for the life of me, get logged in via 
the FP client, or through the admin web page.  Here's an excerpt from 
the logs:

[notice] Apache/2.0.54 (FreeBSD) FrontPage/5.0.2.2635 configured -- 
resuming normal operations
[client 63.171.251.35] user fpadmin: authentication failure for "/": 
Password Mismatch

In the past (FreeBSD 4.x), I would replace libscrypt with libdescrypt. 
I'm not sure how to do this with FreeBSD 5, as I only see libcrypt and 
no libdescrypt or libscrypt.

Then again, I'm not even sure if this is the problem, as all the 
executables I can find seem to be linked against /lib/libcrypt.so.2, 
which would suggest that frontpage no longer cares if the passwords are 
MD5 or DES.

Please advise.

Thanks,
