You actually almost have it right.
You are passing VARDATA(user) to crypt, this is wrong.
You must do something like this:
int ulen = VARSIZE(user)-VARHDRSZ;
char utmp[ulen+]; // This works in newer GCC, cool.
memcpy(utmp,VARDATA(user), len);
utmp[ulen]=0;
crypted=crypt(utmp,salt);
Strings are not gurenteed to be NULL teminated.

I'm not offering myself as an example; every life evolves by its own laws.
