Add auth.conf. JKH Added the code to understand this to libutil, and I will be following up with commits to use it in KerberosIV userland. 1998-10-08 06:12:04 +00:00			`#`

auth.conf seems to be being gradually subsumed by user classes and PAM configuration. Remove the line concerning "auth_list" from the template, since it's referenced only in the tinyware password command, and only #ifdef KERBEROS, which isn't defined in tinyware. Add a comment about auth.conf being on the way out the door. The one remaining consumer of auth.conf is crypt(3). 2003-07-28 02:28:51 +00:00			`# Configure some authentication-related defaults.

Merge into a single US-exportable libcrypt, which only provides one-way hash functions for authentication purposes. There is no more "set the libcrypt->libXXXcrypt" nightmare. - Undo the libmd.so hack, use -D to hide the md5c.c internals. - Remove the symlink hacks in release/Makefile - the algorthm is set by set_crypt_format() as before. If this is not called, it tries to heuristically figure out the hash format, and if all else fails, it uses the optional auth.conf entry to chose the overall default hash. - Since source has non-hidden crypto in it there may be some issues with having the source it in some countries, so preserve the "secure/*" division. You can still build a des-free libcrypt library if you want to badly enough. This should not be a problem in the US or exporting from the US as freebsd.org had notified BXA some time ago. That makes this stuff re-exportable by anyone. - For consistancy, the default in absence of any other clues is md5. This is to try and minimize POLA across buildworld where folk may suddenly be activating des-crypt()-hash support. Since the des hash may not always be present, it seemed sensible to make the stronger md5 algorithm the default. All things being equal, no functionality is lost.
