Greetings, I installed a new machine on 3.3-RELEASE and copied the passwords entries from another 3.2-RELEASE machine. I installed des on both machines but for some odd reason, the following as a example will not be recognized on the 3.3-RELEASE machine in /etc/master.passwd as a valid password while it worked fine when I copied it from 3.1-RELEASE, -CURRENT and even 2.2.x machines. vince:7G2DAweJ1/D8c:1001:0::0:0:Vincent Poy,,,:/home/vince:/usr/local/bin/tcsh So I had to run passwd on each user to manually do the passwords resulting that the passwords are DES as shown below: vince:$1$I1DcF26E$/qf90HbgJHM3vhqDbu1Pl/:1001:0::0:0:Vincent Poy,,,:/home/vince:/usr/local/bin/tcsh Seems that the DES package can't read MD5 passwords like it can in older releases. Anyone have any ideas what I'm doing wrong?
