Tom, FreeBSD indeed has problems with crypt library - either you need to use DES encryption (which use is limited for USA only) or to compile the MUD without encrypting the passwords. Jeremy has added a NOCRYPT compilation flag to the main MUD server code, but didn't do that for the utilities. All you have to do is to replace the following in util/mudpasswd.c : crypt(password, something) with: password Hope that helps. +--------------------------------------------------------------+ | Sergei Barbarash aka Sgt <sgt@netmedia.net.il> \/ | | <OO# | | NetMedia System Administrator /###\ | | Check out our WWW site at http://www.netmedia.net.il/ V V | +--------------------------------------------------------------+ On Tue, 20 Feb 1996, Tom Balfe wrote: > I compiled CircleMUD 2.2 as well as the beta version on a FreeBSD 2.1R > box and it won't hold the passwords for the characters.
