[mod.computers.vax] Questions on $GETUAI/$SETUAI system services....

RGERBER@NYBVX1.BITNET.UUCP (03/13/87)

        On the $GETUAI system service you can get a longword value for the
encyption algorithm used on the passwords.  You apparently need this value
to encrypt a new password to set with $SETUAI as it needs an encrypted password
as its input for 'set password'.
        The question is how do you use the encyption algorithm value....
(I could not find anything in the manual...did I miss it????)

        Advance Thanks,
        Robert Gerber
