Hi all... Please reply via email since I dont get a chance to follow this
list often...

I have a freebsd system running 2.1.5 and a bsdi2.1 system acting as a
primary server...
I want to rdist passwd files from the bsdi system to the freebsd system
but my freebsd system is using md5 for encryption and the bsdi uses des...

I figure I will have to reinstall freebsd from scratch and tell it to
install the des encryption method...
will freebsd install and set itself up to use des in the passwd files from
the installation menus?
Someone in another group said that even though I told it to install the des
stuff, it
would only install the libraries, and not actually set up to use des in the
passwd files.
If not, anyone out there doing this type of setup and if so what did you do
to make it work?
I essentially am going to use the freebsd box as a secondary radius server
(since a second bsdi license is quite expensive)
