Not to bicker, but the resources needed to use a database of all
possible passwords even with alphanumerics and salted is very finite
-- albeit large.
OpenBSD's blowfish passwords have 128-bits of salt. A table of all 8

problem above is above our
financial capacity or need. We mainly deal with the issues related to
login() and the use of MD5.

Our firm may have the bandwidth, but I have to check with operations.
Will reply in full on Monday. We use obsd somewhere in most of our
client and our own networks and are very interested in issues related
