A md5 hash of the password is transmitted if you use etelnet instead
of telnet from the jnos prompt. <br>
md5authenticate has to be defined in config.h for etelnet. A md5
hash is weak nowadays

been a LOOOOONG time away from NOS. Back in the day, I used a
copy of KA9Q NOS to create GRAPESNOS which was used in a 56K RF
lan around the Atlanta/North Georgia area. Back then things were
simpler. Passwords, if you had them, were sent in the clear. <br>
<br>
Now, if I read the documentation correctly, passwords used for
JNOS2 are encrypted. Are they passed on RF encrypted or in the
clear? I know you can encrypt them for storage but what about
on-the-air logins? <br>
