Thanks, just tested that. :-[ . But if you use an encrytion in a sysidcfg file say jumpstart, all the clients will use that. Interesting. Still doesn't explain why the problematic encryption only has 12 characters, not 13. Mike Edward Pilatowicz wrote: no, it likely wouldn't be the same. the

no, it likely wouldn't be the same. the classic unix crypt uses a "salt" to allow for different encodings of the same text string. see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crypt_(Unix) ed On Wed, Aug 26, 2009 at 03:00:01PM -0400, Mike Wahlberg wrote: > Also I created a root passwd on my Solar

are you running opensolaris? if so, i'm guessing that the problem is the format of the hashed password. by default, solaris version <= 10 and nevada use crypt for hashing passwords, but opensolaris uses SHA256. these settings seem to be controlled via /etc/security/policy.conf. just search for
