https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=375282 Summary: User password algorithm is set to blowfish & passwords longer than 8 charters not accepted Product: openSUSE 11.0 Version: Alpha 3 Platform: Other OS/Version: Other Status: NEW Severity: Enhancement Priority: P5 - None Component: Installation AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: willem@neteyes.nl QAContact: jsrain@novell.com Found By: Other When installing Alpha 3 I discovered the password algorithm has defaulted to blowfish. This in itself is not I problem and I suspect the choice is made due to the recent MD5 collision issues. There is one undesired side effect with the new setup: longer passwords (more than 8 chars) are not possible and get truncated? I don't think people will like this and that is why I'm reporting it. Is this specific to blowfish or something that can be altered? Cheers, Willem P.s.
