This has been fixed in PR 18581.

This problem is in the change_server.sh script. The actual problem is that
the script is using 'cat' instead of 'strings', and fgrep needs the -a
or --text option, to retrieve printable text from mod_frontpage.so.

Not sure what you mean here, as I didn't see any problems at this stage.
change_server.sh should return with the Apache servers & mod_frontpage as
being equal and not install the apache-fp server that comes with the
extensions.
You don't need to run the change_server.sh script on a Apache13-fp install.
As the install has taken care of installing the Apache-FP server, and made
sure the files permissions are correct.

The problem is that your apache server was compiled dynamically to use
libcrypt. libcrypt is linked to libscrypt which only understands MD5
passwords. fpsrvadm.exe creates DES passwords and that is why your FP2K
client could not log into the system.

Microsoft and RTR upgraded the FP2K extensions to SR 1. This is why you
received the checksum error.
As for the DES libraries you can do one of the following to install:
----------
FreeBSD 3.x
1. Download your releases Crypto sources from:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/FreeBSD/releases/i386/3.4-RELEASE/des
you'll need at least des.* and install.sh
2. Edit install.sh, and place a "#" in front of "cat krb..." (krb4). If you
don't want to install Kerberous support.
3. Run install.sh as root.
----------
FreeBSD 4.x:
1. Download your releases Crypto sources from:
ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD/releases/i386/4.0-RELEASE/crypto
you'll need at least crypto.* and install.sh
2. Edit install.sh, and place a "#" in front of "cat krb..." (krb4, krb5).
If you don't want to install Kerberous support.
3. Run install.sh as root.
----------
1. Use CVSup to download the sources for your version (need to include
appropriate crypto tags).
2. Do a make world to upgrade your sources.
----------
You should have submitted this PR to ports instead of misc. As I would not
have seen it if I hadn't been looking thru the PR database.
