for crypt(3) by now. In any case:
Add crypt_set_format(3) + documentation to -lcrypt.
Add login_setcryptfmt(3) + documentation to -lutil.
Support for switching crypt formats in passwd(8).
Support for switching crypt formats in pw(8).
The simple synopsis is:
edit login.conf; add a passwd_format field set to "des" or "md5"; go nuts :)

This should cause -w's argument not to be ignored in the usermod case,
so it will affect modification of the user's password instead of using
the pw.conf (or internal default=no '*') password method.

not set the 'something had changed flag'. Actually test for a
change in homedir.

Problem pointed out by: Masachika ISHIZUKA <ishizuka@ish.org>
pw(8) was calling pwd_mkdb -u oldusername instead of newusername, so
the update appears to have failed until the next full pwd_mkdb
syncronization.

not doing the right thing according to the ELF design). libcrypt has
been adjusted to not need the runtime -lmd. It's still not quite right
(ld is supposed to work damnit) but at least it doesn't impact all the
users of libcrypt in Marcel's cross-build model.
like "pw usermod <name> -m" to work for non-local NIS users; since no attempt

instead of a boolean. This replicated through he front-end sub-functions
relating to add, delete, modify entries in passwd & group files
Errno is now preserved so output of errc()/warnc() will be less obfuscated
by subsequent errors when reporting the problem.
Add more intelligent error handling when attempting to modify/delete NIS
entries with no corresponding local database entry.

The char that the random letters and numbers are being pulled from is
ended with a '\0'. Using sizeof() includes this '\0' in the 'pool' of
possible characters. This patch decrements by one the size so we don't
accidently end the new password prematurly.

run at the same time.
Notes:
The fileupdate function is still somewhat broken. Instead of
returning a failure code if it can't modify the original file it
renames the .new file and continues as though nothing is wrong.
This will cause the lock on the original file to be lost and could
lead to a similar race condition. I left that portion of the code
alone since I feel that the maintainer of the code would have a
better concept of how he wants to handle errors in that function
than I do.
