been recommended changing md5 for something more secure in the
sense of being more expensive to crack.
is md5 that easy to crack?
It has been discussed recently, cf
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-security/2012-June/006271.html
or virtually the first half of
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-security/2012-June/thread.html
wasn't aware md5 is really risky. thanks.
anyway - as long as someone don't actually get /etc/master.passwd it
doesn't matter, it could be even plaintext here.
If someone can get /etc/master.passwd then he/she most probably already
got root priviledge :)
