Re: userdbpw/5.2 producing inconsistent result
Thanks to anyone who bothered to answer my earlier question. Unfortunately due to a problem related to the original reason for my question, sendmail started rejecting messages and I've lost at least a few hours worth of messages and if you replied I missed it. In the meantime I've learned about adding SALT to passwords and realise that the differing results from userdbpw weren't the source of my userdb problems which is what originally led me to think that the password encryption might have been at fault.

userdbpw/5.2 producing inconsistent result
# uname -mrsv FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE FreeBSD 5.2-RELEASE #0: Wed Feb 4 05:44:41 CST 2004 root@:/usr/src/sys/i386/compile/LILLITH-IV i386 # pkg_which /usr/local/sbin/userdbpw courier-imap-2.2.1,1 Every time I run userdbpw it's generating a different result (for the same supplied password). eg: # foreach p ( password password password ) foreach? echo $p | userdbpw foreach? end fA8HQ5zWzV.fM Vkedbdeq0kk7s Lay1EhcWhup/s # Fear not if there's anything wrong with the above because I've tried it manually with a variety of passwords and the result is the same (ie. the results are not! the same). # userdbpw Password: Reenter password: wRkPrfxswnUGo # userdbpw Password: Reenter password: yTBnb7ab/N072 I was using this without issue on 4.8. Can anyone suggest anything I should try/check or is it bug-hunting time?
