I checked the current status of Fedora 8. They now provide <sha256> and <sha512> password hashing. This is implemented in the glibc crypt routines and works with the standard <pam_unix.so> module. The only change necessary is to replace the <md5> string in the pam config file with eigther <sha256> or <sha512>.
They use glibc (2.7) and pam(0.99.8.1). As hardy is already using a glibc 2.7, it may be as simple as providing a backport for the pam modules to get the new password hashes. I will try that myself and report back. -- gnome-screensaver does not work with pam_unix2.so https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/89881 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
