adduser and crypt
Hello!
adduser(8) perl script uses crypt(3) to generate encrypted passwords,
as pointed in /usr/sbin/adduser itself. Currently in /etc/login.conf
password format is MD5 as default but adduser always generates encrypted
passwords in DES format.
IMHO adduser script should read value of passwd_format in /etc/login.conf
to decide what kind of salt (DES, MD5 or somewhat else) he gives to crypt.
