Cant switch from MD5 to Blowfish for password hashes

Hello,

Im trying to change encryption for password hashes from MD5 to blf on FreeBSD 8.2.

What I did:
changed in /etc/login.conf from
Code:
:passwd_format=md5:\
to
Code:
:passwd_format=blf:\

rebuild the login database with cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf;

changed root password with passwd;

Still, in /etc/master.passwd I see
Code:
root:$1$s0...
not
Code:
root:$2a$...

What am I doing wrong?
Sorry for my english,

CoTones
 
Try:
Code:
crypt_default =  blowfish
not blf. Then do the [cmd=]cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf[/cmd] thing and then change your passwords.

Thanks for helping, still no luck.

Which login class is root in? You can check using chpass(1), or you can use:
Code:
# awk -F':' '/^root/{ print $5 }' /etc/master.passwd

If the output of that is blank, then root is in the default class.

---

And which section of /etc/login.conf did you change, exactly? There are potentially multiple places where passwd_format can be changed, depending on your configuration.

Assuming root is in the default class, and you changed the default section, you will need to log out and log back in before changing root's password. (Otherwise the new crypto hash will not be used.)
 
Hello anomie,

outputs nothing.

Try redefining default PASSWORD_HASH in pam_unix(8) source.

It does work here with passwd_format=blf, though. Can you check that setting blf with crypt_set_format(3) actually works?

Well, it looks interesting, but somewhat it should work the same for me as for you, isn't? I'm just trying find out what's wrong with my FreeBSD installation. And I'm out of ideas.

Thank you,

You have a syntax error in login.conf. Hint: look at line continuations, the line with commented out md5 breaks it.

Bingo! It works now.

Thank you all,
