- generation of SHA encrypted passwords (chpasswd, gpasswd, newusers,
chgpasswd; and also passwd if configured without PAM support).
The number of rounds and number of salt bytes was fixed to their lower
allowed values (resp. configurable and 8), hence voiding some of the
advantages of this encryption method. Dictionary attacks with
precomputed tables were easier than expected, but still harder than with
the MD5 (or DES) methods.
* NEWS, libmisc/salt.c (SHA_salt_size): Seed the RNG, and fix a
overflow. These caused the SHA salt size to always be 8 bytes,
instead of being in the 8-16 range. Thanks to Peter Vrabec

* NEWS, libmisc/salt.c (SHA_salt_rounds): Seed the RNG with
seedRNG instead of srand, and fix the same overflow. This caused
the number of rounds to always be the smallest one.

the PAM error, which may not be comprehensible for the users).

find_new_uid() and find_new_gid(). They work the same way as the functions
with the same name of useradd or groupadd, except that they check in the
local database to make sure an ID was not reserved in an uncommitted
change (this is needed to be used in newusers), they report a status
instead of calling exit(), and they can receive a preferred ID. They
should later support system IDs. This should be a little bit slower, but
not too much (if the database is not open the checks against the local
database will exit immediately, and if it is already open, all the checks
will be done regarding the data in memory).

accordingly.
* lib/prototypes.h: Add the parameters' name for the

* libmisc/copydir.c: Split copy_tree() in more maintainable functions:
copy_entry(), copy_dir(), copy_symlink(), copy_hardlink(),

usage of one of the getpwnam(), getpwuid(), getgrnam(),
getgrgid(), and getspnam() functions. It was noticed on
http://bugs.debian.org/341230 that chfn and chsh use a passwd
structure after calling a pam function, which result in using
information from the passwd structure requested by pam, not the
original one. It is much easier to use the new xget... functions
to avoid these issues. I've checked which call to the original
get... functions could be left (reducing the scope of the
structure if possible), and I've left comments to ease future
reviews (e.g. /* local, no need for xgetpwnam */).
