There is a known limitation in the Perl 'crypt' function - the result
of
a call to crypt is sensitive only to the first eight characters of the
encrypted string.
E.g., the two following calls will both result in: '<b>san3ikkE.ivL2'</
b>:
crypt ('wordword', 'salt');
crypt ('wordwordword', 'salt');
Can someone recommend a Perl module that would be useful
to implement encryption of long passwords, in such way that
the result of the two calls above would differ?
Strength similar to that of crypt or better is OK.
