Amos,
the fact is that joomla breaks common format in salt

normaly in unix forma should be

salt:crypted_password, what ever the seperator is, $ for example

but in joomla is quite differente

crypted:password:salt  (always : as separator), joomla in its code can soppurt 
diferente crypt schemas but it laks on a gui to change it, i fyou want to 
change joomla schema you must hack code (i did already to change it, thats 
whay i know that).
 I will add  --salt separator also, but i'd prefere to keep --joomla because 
this reason i have told

This monday i will publish patch then :) (monday my time, i'm gmt-6)

Regards,

LD
