Subject: changing password hashing to something other than md5 in /etc/shadow
ok,

* I've googled for it (no luck, but certainly lots of 'interesting' reading
material)
* I've tried reading all the syste. documentation I can find

* I've even tried hunting down the files to allow this.

how do I hanged the hashing algorithm used in /etc/shadow?
I need to use something other than MD5 or DES (was looking at whirlpool, AES,
sha-5 or above).

some suggestions please?
