+# Possible stanzas are:
+# 'default', username or .groupname
# Possible options are at the moment:
# localcipher, ypcipher
# they can take values of
# old - old unix style salt of 12bit (YP compatible)
# newsalt - DES hash with salt of 64 bit
-# md5 - MD5 hashing algorithm (FreeBSD-compat)
-# blowfish,x - Blowfish cipher, x is number of rounds (BEST!)
-# 128 bit salt, 4 rounds are min, 31 max
+# md5 - MD5 hashing algorithm
+# blowfish,x - Blowfish cipher, 2^x is number of rounds (BEST!)
+# 128 bit salt, 2^4 rounds are min, 2^31 max

+# EXAMPLE to give members of group .wheel blowfish passwords
+#.wheel:
+# localcipher=blowfish,6
default:
- localcipher=old
+ localcipher=blowfish,5
ypcipher=old
root:
- localcipher=old
