# Password prompt (%s will be replaced by user name).
#
# XXX - it doesn't work correctly yet, for now leave it commented out

#LOGIN_STRING		"%s's Password: "

#
# Only works if compiled with MD5_CRYPT defined:
# If set to "yes", 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 "no" if you need to copy encrypted passwords to other systems
# which don't understand the new algorithm.  Default is "no".
#
# Note: If you use PAM, it is recommended to use a value consistent with
# the PAM modules configuration.
#
# This variable is deprecated. You should use ENCRYPT_METHOD instead.
#
#MD5_CRYPT_ENAB	no

#
# Only works if compiled with ENCRYPTMETHOD_SELECT defined:
# If set to MD5, MD5-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password
# If set to SHA256, SHA256-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password
# If set to SHA512, SHA512-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password
# If set to BCRYPT, BCRYPT-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password
# If set to YESCRYPT, YESCRYPT-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password
# If set to DES, DES-based algorithm will be used for encrypting password (default)
# MD5 and DES should not be used for new hashes, see crypt(5) for recommendations.
# Overrides the MD5_CRYPT_ENAB option
#
# Note: If you use PAM, it is recommended to use a value consistent with
# the PAM modules configuration.
#
#ENCRYPT_METHOD DES

#
# Only works if ENCRYPT_METHOD is set to SHA256 or SHA512.
#
# Define the number of SHA rounds.
# With a lot of rounds, it is more difficult to brute-force the password.
# However, more CPU resources will be needed to authenticate users if
# this value is increased.
#
# If not specified, the libc will choose the default number of rounds (5000),
# which is orders of magnitude too low for modern hardware.
# The values must be within the 1000-999999999 range.
# If only one of the MIN or MAX values is set, then this value will be used.
# If MIN > MAX, the highest value will be used.
#
#SHA_CRYPT_MIN_ROUNDS 5000
#SHA_CRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS 5000

#
# Only works if ENCRYPT_METHOD is set to BCRYPT.
#
# Define the number of BCRYPT rounds.
# With a lot of rounds, it is more difficult to brute-force the password.
# However, more CPU resources will be needed to authenticate users if
# this value is increased.
#
# If not specified, 13 rounds will be attempted.
# If only one of the MIN or MAX values is set, then this value will be used.
# If MIN > MAX, the highest value will be used.
#
#BCRYPT_MIN_ROUNDS 13
#BCRYPT_MAX_ROUNDS 13

#
# If not specified, a cost factor of 5 will be used.
# The value must be within the 1-11 range.
#
#YESCRYPT_COST_FACTOR 5

#
# List of groups to add to the user's supplementary group set
# when logging in from the console (as determined by the CONSOLE

# How to do it is left as an exercise for the reader...
#
#CONSOLE_GROUPS		floppy:audio:cdrom

#
# Should login be allowed if we can't cd to the home directory?
# Default is no.
#
DEFAULT_HOME	yes

#
# The pwck(8) utility emits a warning for any system account with a home

#
# Enable setting of the umask group bits to be the same as owner bits
# (examples: 022 -> 002, 077 -> 007) for non-root users, if the uid is
# the same as gid, and username is the same as the primary group name.
#
# This also enables userdel(8) to remove user groups if no members exist.
#
USERGROUPS_ENAB yes

#
# If set to a non-zero number, the shadow utilities will make sure that
# groups never have more than this number of users on one line.
# This permits to support split groups (groups split into multiple lines,
# with the same group ID, to avoid limitation of the line length in the
# group file).
#
# 0 is the default value and disables this feature.
#
#MAX_MEMBERS_PER_GROUP	0

#
# If useradd(8) should create home directories for users by default (non
