It's my understanding that the purpose of the ``NODESCRYPTLINKS'' option in make.conf is to prevent overwriting the libcrypt symlinks in /usr/lib. Well, it doesn't work. I cvsupped today in the morning (~ 9:00 UTC on Sunday), added NODESCRYPTLINKS=true to /etc/make.conf, "make buildworld", "make installworld", and couldn't log in anymore because the symlinks had been set to libscrypt (and I'm using DES passwords). I guess that's not how it's supposed to work, is it? Regards Oliver PS: Apart from that, all is working well. I had to compile the system without openssh, though. -- Oliver Fromme, Leibnizstr. 18/61, 38678 Clausthal, Germany (Info: finger userinfo:olli@dorifer.heim3.tu-clausthal.de) "In jedem Stück Kohle wartet ein Diamant auf seine Geburt" (Terry Pratchett) To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
