Fedora directory users - Dec 2008 - big problem with password length

I to all, 
I have a big problem with my fedora-ds-1.0.4-1.RHEL4, my passwords are
"CRYPT"

the problem:

when I change the password an one user es 123456789 the fedara-ds register only
the fiirst 8 character. so If I try to login is sufficient write the password
12345678 the last character isn''t necessary..

How I can force fedora-ds to register oll my password characters? 


thanks....

Traditional unix CRYPT limits password length to 8 characters. In order to use
longer passwords, you have to use a different encryption algorithm.
