Earlier this year I downloaded shadow from one of the sources
newsgroups.  I'm just now getting around to looking at it and have a
few questions.

Does it have a way to use YP or some password hashing scheme?
Our password file has over 3300 entries, and presently we're using YP
to keep login times to a reasonable length.

Does anyone have any experience setting up the shadow login on a
Sequent?  We've got a B8, running Dynix.

Thanks in advance.

Feel free to email me and I'll post a summary.

later, david
