6.2 and login.defs

[John Doe <jdmls@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

After the 6.2 upgrade, the new /etc/login.defs has:
  ENCRYPT_METHOD SHA512 instead of MD5Is it safe to just apply the change?
Will my current MD5 passwords in /etc/passwd still work and only new passwords will be SHA512?
Or are they automatically "converted" (rehashed) to SHA512?

Thx,
JD
