no, i just use crypt via an iterative perl quickie:
#!/usr/bin/perl
my $plain = shift;
my $salt = '';
# randomize the salt, just to be difficult
do {
my $crypt = crypt($plain,$salt || $plain);
$salt = substr($crypt,rand(length $crypt),1);
$crypt =~ s/\Q$salt\E//g;
$salt .= substr($crypt,rand(length $crypt),1);
} while rand() < .7;
print crypt($plain,$salt),"\n";
but i don't think encoding format is my trouble -- it doesn't let
me in EVEN if i get rid of the passwd file COMPLETELY.
i must have something pointing to the wrong directory or
something like that.

DEBIAN NEWBIE TIP #16 from Will Trillich <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
:
Why are *.rpm (RED HAT PACKAGES) considered spawn of Satan?
Because the Debian package system is a lot more sophisticated
than the one Red Hat uses; lots more inter-dependency information
is built in to a *.deb package. If you bypass that with an *.rpm
file, you're taking chances with your system. Try to "apt-get
install <debian-only>" packages if possible. (Also check out the
"alien" package if you must.)
