Add the following parameters in the /etc/rc.conf configuration file:
ntpd_enable=”YES” ntpd_sync_on_start=”YES”
add the line: pool de.pool.ntp.org iburst in /etc/ntp.conf file
iburst denotes that ntpd will perform a burst of 8 quick packet exchanges with a server when contact is first established, to help quickly synchronize system time.
The de prefix differs depending on the servers of the country you choose. In my case Germany. A complete list of active servers is on https://www.ntppool.org/en/
In addition, FreeBSD provides a project-sponsored pool, 0.freebsd.pool.ntp.org.
The supported hashing algorithms are DES, MD5, SHA256, SHA512, and Blowfish but the default is SHA512
Hashes that start with $6$ are indicative of SHA512
The settings are found in /etc/login.conf where :passwd_format=sha512:\ declares the preferred hashing algorithm
In order to change the hashing method execute cap_mkdb /etc/login.conf. It will only affect the new passwords. The old ones need to be re-hashed by asking users to run passwd in order to change their password

“In 2017, the kernel jumped from two years of support to six. Now, six years later, it turns out that’s a lot of work. Linux Weekly News executive editor Jonathan Corbet announced the Linux kernel will return to two years of LTS support.
The plan to cut back down to two years isn’t instant.”
According to the article the currently LTS maintained kernels are 6 🙂
