If you're interested in the details of the password hashing algorithm,
refer to the source code in /usr/src/lib/libcrypt. The md5 password
hash algorithm is a bit more complicated than a single MD5.

The $1$ means we are in fact using MD5.
but when I run md5 in the command line, I get
$ md5 -s FreeBSD
MD5 ("FreeBSD") = a3dc630729e463135f4e608954fa6e19
which is considerably diff
Hello,
I am running FreeBSD 5.1.
In /etc/login.conf, I see my password_format is set to MD5.
Now let's assume a temporary user I created. He logs in as 'nerdy' and
his password is 'FreeBSD'. (without quotes of course)
