+ <para>
+ Indicate if passwords must be encrypted using the MD5-based
+ algorithm. If set to <replaceable>yes</replaceable>, new passwords
+ will be encrypted using the MD5-based algorithm compatible with the
+ one used by recent releases of FreeBSD. It supports passwords of
+ unlimited length and longer salt strings. Set to
+ <replaceable>no</replaceable> if you need to copy encrypted
+ passwords to other systems which don't understand the new algorithm.
+ Default is <replaceable>no</replaceable>.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This variable is superseded by the <option>ENCRYPT_METHOD</option>
+ variable or by any command line option used to configure the
+ encryption algorithm.
+ </para>
+ <para>
+ This variable is deprecated. You should use
+ <option>ENCRYPT_METHOD</option>.

+ Note: This only affect the generation of group passwords.
+ The generation of user passwords is done by PAM and subject to the
+ PAM configuration. It is recommended to set this variable
