web-admin password: only 8 characters used???

hi...

i just found out that my asl4-box web-interface just "uses" the first 8 characters of the password!
is this  a "feature" or some kind of bug???

how is the web-admin authentication done?
authentication against local password-db (/etc/shadow)???

is there any way to enforce longer passwords?

thnx in advance....

  • hi all...

    thnx 4 the hints!

    has anybody set "MD5_CRYPT_ENAB yes" in /etc/login.defs to enable md5-hashes of the password (which will allow passes of unlimited chracters)?

    is this working with asl4?
    is there anything to take care of when enableing md5-hahes?

    cheers...
