That's standard (2 + 11) for DES isn't it? My question is how come I
don't have a password.conf file? This is 1.5U from CVS a couple of
days ago:

# locate passwd.conf
/usr/obj/share/man/man5.i386/passwd.conf.cat5
/usr/share/man/cat5/passwd.conf.0
/usr/share/man/man5/passwd.conf.5
/usr/src/share/man/man5/passwd.conf.5

The man page for password.conf is sort of interesting too:

HISTORY
     The passwd.conf configuration file first appeared in NetBSD 1.6.

NetBSD 1.5                       June 30, 2000                               1


Is that wrong, and if so does something like that merit a pr?
