Hi, sorry if this question has been asked 100times before, but I didn't find a mailing list archive. We (VIX, ACOnet) are taking a look at BIRD within the following months to use it for various purposes. One of the requirements though (and unfortunately) is to support md5 passwords. I know bird is capable of doing this but as far as my understanding goes this is something the operating system has to support, too. I know linux does now have native md5+tcp support in the kernel. Is this supported with BIRD? If so, does anybody have a hint for me how to use it (for not having to reinvent the wheel) on linux- side? Is there a wiki (other than euro-ix which I know of) where I could add precious information regarding my work with bird? thanks for any help; Wolfgang -- www.vix.at | www.aco.net wh@univie.ac.at | WH844-RIPE Vienna University Computer Center
