Hi!
Ocassional installation of DES distribution (through
Configure->Distributions->DES in /stand/sysinstall) seems to limit my
passowrds to eight symbols. Is it right? It seems to me that there is no
such limit in default encrypting scheme (MD5). What should I do to restore
MD5 encryption? (I suppose that 8 symbols is quite enough, but my pass is
longer ;-)

Thanks in advance for any input and sorry for my English!

-- Andrew.
Don't thank me for insulting you. It was my pleasure.
