Hi, I have a freebsd 3.2 system and is having some problem with the crypt(3) function. According to the man page, if I were to supply a 2 byte salt, it will return the historical 13 byte string. However, it seems like the one in 3.2 is not doing what is said in the man pages? Sample code and output :- printf("%s\n",crypt("a","_1234abcd")); printf("%s\n", crypt("a","ab")); Output: $1$_1234abc$zyNh.miJty685SsEEDPDT0 $1$ab$NM4FR4Dl/CzoTSJTd3YJ3. Or is my way of using crypt(3) wrong in some way? Thanks and regards, Juay Kwang To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
