MD5 Passwords in Solaris 9

Hello,

ok, i now have Solaris 9 12/02 installed... and while it might be using MD5
passwords, it's still only allowing 8 chars. This suggests that it's still stuck
to the old passwords by default, so who know how i can enable MD5?

I have the 12/02 release, and according to Sun's web site, MD5 is available
(without patches) in this release... i just don't know how to enable it...

Any ideas?? As usual, this has also been posted at the following address, so
feel free to reply either way:

Thanks,
Richard.
