What is the relationship between the passwords on BSDI and FreeBSD ? I notice the encrypted passwords on BSDI seem to be much shorter than the ones on FreeBSD. The reason I ask is because I have written a perl script which creates encrypted passwords suitable for importing directly into FreeBSDs /etc/master.passwd file. (The script uses perls crypt function in a manner similar to Wolfram Schneider's `adduser' script for FreeBSD). Would such a script produce BSDI compatable passwords if it was executed on a BSDI machine ? Anthony Hill
