does freebsd support shadow passwords? also what can i do to make my passwords 'less' crackable in terms of someone taking a cracker and cracking them? in terms of making the stuff in the password files harder to figure out using brute force? an example would be is 'blowfish' ecryption harder to decrypt then md5 or whaever freebsd uses for default? i hope this question makes sense...if not i can try and clarify it. thanks nathan _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
