Hello, I'm running Linux and discovered the following: perl -e "print crypt('thelonger', 'xy');" leads to output: xyCf30g5Eb0U. perl -e "print crypt('thelongerthebetter', 'xy');" leads to output: xyCf30g5Eb0U. actually perl -e "print crypt('thelonge', 'xy');" leads to output: xyCf30g5Eb0U. everything longer than 8 characters seems to be ignored. Or did I make any mistake??? Bye Oliver __________________________________________________________________ Gesendet von Yahoo! Mail - http://mail.yahoo.de Kreative Köpfe gesucht!
