I wrote a perl module to handle this kind of encryption model
on various machines. I know of people working on linux, alpha,
sun and others with it sharing password files from other systems
(probably linux and FreeBSD). In all of them it works, which means
it is the same algorithm.

I'll be very interested to know if you find any positives.
