The problem with the FrontPage extensions is that Microsoft or RTR compiled
the extensions statically with a DES enabled libcrypto. When you install
the FrontPage Extensions on to a FreeBSD system with out the DES libraries
installed, you will not be able to access the web pages from the FrontPage
client. Because the apache server doesn't know how to decipher the DES
encrypted password in order to allow access.
The only way to correct this problem is to download and install the DES
libraries from:
US & Canada
http://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.8-RELEASE/des
International
http://internat.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/2.2.8-RELEASE/des
The files you will need are des.a* and the install.sh file, you'll need to
comment out, or remove the line for Kerberos (krb) in the install.sh file.
Or if you use CVSup add:
src-crypto
src-secure
to your cvsupfile. Then use "make update" to update the source tree, and
finally rebuild the sources (buildworld & installworld).
