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 :-).
