oops, excuse me, i don't actually misunderstand MD5, i just miswrote :). my real question was: how about passwords. can they somehow be manhandled into the linux md5 password format (e.g., can we get them in plaintext in NT so we can hash them ourselves), or into some other format that can be used for authentication on linux? (e.g., LDAP? i don't know how LDAP stores passwords, is there a standard LDAP hash that works the same in Win* and Linux? or are the hashes not compatible so that we'll still have to go with sniffing or forcing them to change their passwords or something else like that authentication proxy i was fantasizing about previously? :). tiger -- Gerald Timothy Quimpo gquimpo*hotmail.com tiger*sni*ph http://bopolissimus.sni.ph Public Key: "gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 672F4C78" The difficult we do today.
