Anyone else given this a spin? > Currently, the port uses the BSDI port, but I have a patch that will be changing it to use the FreeBSD FP exts. There is a small problem with the FreeBSD FP exts. If you have your crypt library linked to the scrypt library ( libcrypt -> libscrypt), then fpsrvadm.exe creates an invalid MD5 password. I believe this problem is because fpsrvadm.exe doesn't allocate a large enough buffer in order to store the encrypted password. This means that the FreeBSD FP exts will only work on a system that has libcrypt -> libdescrypt. For those that have libcrypt -> libscrypt, they would still need to use the BSDI FP exts, and make sure that libdescrypt.a is compiled into the apache server. I informed RTR of the problem, and hopefully they will be able to provide a fix. Scot To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
