To be able to share accounts with a Sun machine, I need to tell the
users to recreate their password, so that they are in the DES form.

The problem is, I don't know what to tell them. The NIS server is a
FreeBSD-3.1-STABLE. If I create a new account there, the password is
in DES form. But if I try to modify the existing user's password, it
is created in MD5 form.

Thanks for hints!
