>Environment:
n/a
>Description:
In any 5.x release, passwd ignores the passwd_format class key in
login.conf, and always generates a MD5 password.
>How-To-Repeat:
- enable des_users class in login.conf (for DES crypt passwords)
- run cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf
- edit the class field of the user(s) with vipw, changing their
login class to des_users.
mahlon:REMOVED:1001:1000:des_users:0:0:Mahlon E. Smith:/home/mahlon:/bin/tcsh
- change the password with passwd.
- check the master.passwd file. Password is MD5. ($1$...)
>Fix:
Because this works perfectly under 4.x, I'm assuming it's an issue
with the new PAM compatibility with passwd under 5.x.
To workaround for now, don't use passwd, instead use:
% pw usermod [username] -h 0
