 Subject: [horde] [PATCH] for passwd to support shadow style password
      To: horde@lists.horde.org

Hi all,

I just made some changes to Hordes passwd/Drivers/sql.php to enable
usage of shadow encrypted passwords.

The change is actually, that first the encyrpted password is queried 
from the db to have the needed salt
http://www.stanford.edu/group/itss-ccs/security/unix/Linux/Shadow-Password-HOWTO-2.html


is a source what I tought making this.

This makes sense if people had migrated from oldstyle unix-accounts to
a SQL based authentication using a virtual system. So no new passwords 
are needed
for the clients. Just a script needs to be done to import the passwords 
from /etc/shadow to
the database.

I'll do also the same for mysql-style encryption.

If there is a general interest, I'll also clean up the stuff a bit.

Hopefully I did not overseen somthing grave in terms of security, please 
have a look.

Feedback is welcome

rgds

Luc
