I recently read and article in BSDVault.net about changing your default
encryption password algorithm from MD5 to Blowfish. It explains how to
change /etc/login.conf and then run

#cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf

after that every user I add will have blowfish.
My question is, is there a way I can change to blowfish the passwords of my
current users?
does the cap_mkdb command does that? if not how can I do it?

thanks in advance

Gerardo Amaya
