>Description:
NetBSD 1.6 introduced the passwd.conf file for getting rid of
insecure DES passwords and using nice MD5 ones instead via a nice
simple configuration.  Unfortunately there is no example file
available and so people have no idea such an implementation exists,
unless they are cunning enough to find passwd.conf(5)
