Description Brook.Schofield 2000-10-17 00:00:01 UTC

pw(8) doesn't allow an already encrypted password to be added to the password file. This patch allows such by modifying the activity of '-w method' to allow 'crypt' option which causes '-h' to read the password literally and include in the password file, with the exception of an input containing a ':'.

How-To-Repeat: 
Apply the following patch to pw

I have a modified version of this patch that I must have forgotten 
to commit. I'll do it after 5.0-RELEASE.

I have added a `-H <fd>' option in -CURRENT and will merge this 
into -STABLE in a few weeks.
