so, is the intention to have FreeBSD default to md5?
or will there be a modification to move things back to des?
the reason i ask, is that if people cvsup without seeing or noticing this,
they may not realize until too late that the new passwords are md5.
anyone using nis with non-freebsd systems might get really upset.
especially if they end up chasing around trying to figure out what
they "broke" to change the behaviour.
