Hello,

I'm currently in the process of moving users accounts from a 3.0 machine
over to a different 3.2 one.  Is there a way to convert the passwd
file?  The 3.0 passwd file is MD5, while the 3.2 one is using
DES encoding.  I don't have a listing of the passwords in plaintext
unfortunatly, so I need a way to decrypt them, if possible.

I'm sorry if this sounds like a really strange problem, I'm about ready
to pull out my hair :-).

Thanks in advance,

- Matt Aaron (Peaker@peaker.net)
