There are some symbolic links libcrypt* in /usr/lib and
/usr/lib/compat/aout pointing either to libdescrypt* (DES encryption) or
to libscrypt* (MD5). Just remove the old links and create corresponding
new ones. On my system (DES) I see the following links:

libcrypt.a -> libdescrypt.a
libcrypt.so -> libdescrypt.so
libcrypt.so.2 -> libdescrypt.so.2
libcrypt_p.a -> libdescrypt_p.a

Don't forget to set new passwords after replacing the links before you log
off or you won't be able to log in the next time!=09:-)
