hmmmm....you need to wrap your lines at 80 columns, but at least my editor
isn't making too much of a mess...

anyway, the _crypt routine (or crypt()) is usually part of the domestic
source code found in libcrypt in the secr.tgz distribution set, i believe.
if you're a US citizen (sorry, forgot to check the email headers), you can
install this one.  it sounds like you're getting some kind of mismatch
between something that was compiled with -lcrypt and something that
wasn't.  perhaps you need to add -lcrypt to the link flags?  i haven't
compiled this particular package myself, so i'm not quite sure what else
could be going on here.

later.
