[j-nsp] Format of SHA1 Passwords

[Chip Marshall]

I'm trying to write a utility for generating JUNOS-compatible
password hashes outside of JUNOS, and I've hit a bit of a
stumbling block with JUNOS SHA-1 passwords. They don't seem to
follow the normal crypt() pattern of $format$salt$hash and I
can't seem to find the format documented anywhere.

I get things like "$sha1$19418$aoTClyGU$cix8MhZsXwG6OrwUgeHAoOA8f.AX"
where it appears to have the format, some number, what I think is
the salt, and then the hash.

Anyone know how these things are calculated?
