Crypt has an 8 character limit in its specification. Some screwy systems play tricks like using the first 7 chars + the last char of a string longer than 8 chars (MacOS) instead of just the first 8, but it is still eight chars. You will need to use another encoding system for more characters. Cheers, Ken - List info/subscribe/unsubscribe? See http://www.freeradius.org/list/users.html
