The installer asks the password for root and optionally the password for the normal user account. These passwords are saved in /etc/shadow.
However, they are NOT encrypted with MD5 (i.e. strings beginning with $1$ in /etc/shadow), but with DES. When you change passwords via "passwd", they are encrypted using MD5 correctly. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
