Hi, the crypt.3 is a bit confusing on crypt_r (looking at distro-provided man-pages-3.25 here). The manpage says to use _XOPEN_SOURCE and unistd.h, but the crypt_r function, being a GNU extension, requires #define _GNU_SOURCE and #include <crypt.h> instead. thanks, Jan -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
