Message-Id: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hello, I am tring to learn how the encryption system works... I gave a passwd of "aabbcc" and wrote the passwd cryption and then changed it to something else and back again. Then two crypt of the same password was drifferent. I am tring find how does the system check the passwd for user loging on to the system, when encryption are drifferent. Or does it more then one encrypt system ???? So where can i find some reading info .. so that i can find how this is working. And also where can i get the code for passwd.c -Thanks -Khalid Khan student@wayne-state-un To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
