I recall having seen somewhere at some point instructions on where to
find DES crypt routines for 386BSD to provide it with encrypted
password functionality. Unfortunately, I've since lost the pointer to
the code and instructions for its modification/installation.

Anyone have this information handy? Thanks; once again, if this
question has been answered here before, feel free to reply by email in
the interest of conserving bandwidth.
