...-CRYPT} does compared with {SHA512}. It is normal to get a different hash with the same password when you regenerate the hash because a different random salt was chosen (the part between the '$6$' and the next '$') -- it used as part of the hash computation. {SHA512} is a straight saltless hash -- the same password maps to the same hash. This makes it prone to dictionary attacks (i.e. pre-generated tables of plaintext/hash values). If you support both schemes, SHA512-CRYPT is much stronger. Joseph Tam <jtam.home at gmail.com>
