Indicate if passwords must be encrypted using the MD5-based
|
|
|
|
algorithm. If set to <replaceable>yes</replaceable>, new passwords
|
|
|
|
will be encrypted using the MD5-based algorithm compatible with the
|
|
|
|
one used by recent releases of FreeBSD. It supports passwords of
|
|
|
|
unlimited length and longer salt strings. Set to
|
|
|
|
<replaceable>no</replaceable> if you need to copy encrypted
|
|
|
|
passwords to other systems which don't understand the new algorithm.
|
|
|
|
Default is <replaceable>no</replaceable>.
