Ok, I'm working on putting together some other machines here with the intent
on running FreeBSD. I've not done this YET, but it's planned for the near
future.
What I'd like to know is this: does freeBSD come with shadow passwords by
default? If not, what do I need to get them running (I know that Linux
comes with a nice shadow password setup that works very nicely for me...
will this same package work on BSD?)
