Hi there,

I just installed a 4.4R system (with the crypt distro) and noticed the
following behaviour:

I created a few users using the 'adduser' command and then looked at
master.passwd
The passwords seem to be DES hashed instead of MD5'd.

I did a 'passwd' and the new password used the system default (MD5).

Is adduser hardcoded to generate DES passwords?

Thanks,
- Will
