I have a Slack 4.0, and seen the login.defs line that you spoke about. but
I don't know if my linux understands the md5. How to know this ? and
where/how to put it in my system ? Thanks :)

"World Domination" and "Really Good OS" are closely related,

I'm going to love WinMotherboards and encrypted WinDNS.
