From login.conf(5):
passwd_format string md5 The encryption format that new or
changed passwords will use. Valid
values include "des", "md5" and
"blf". NIS clients using a
non-FreeBSD NIS server should prob-
ably use "des".
...where 'blf' stands for Blowfish. Make sure you run 'cap_mkdb
/etc/login.conf' after you edit the file. BTW, I'm not sure when this was
introduced; the machine I'm getting this info from is a 4.4-STABLE machine
from mid-October.
Cheers - Erick
