Hi,

I have a Gentoo-Server with NIS and many SuSE Linux 8.2 Clients. For encryping passwords they use Blowfish.
When I look into the /etc/shadow on the server all is OK. Password Hash: $2a$.......
Changing passwords direct on the server the password hash is like $1$....

Now I installed a new Gentoo client with NFS and NIS. Only users with a $1$ hash can login. Gentoo seems not understanding blowfish decrypting.

Look at this example. User "tester" can login but user "tester2" cannot.

bash-2.05b$ ypcat passwd | grep tester
tester:$1$0zzzbzzz$t00QoBCmk7ezM.ihV0JFk0:1285:100::/home/tester:/bin/bash
tester2:$2a$05$gEDIBi72nq3bhlKUNWYHK.0jClr7ae35FPniJdAo47v2k/CJ.qmuO:1288:100::/home/tester2:/bin/bash

Thanks for your help.

Andreas Herrmann
