Depends on the system as the documentation says.
To determine what your system supports, you can check the values of constants defined by PHP. The constant CRYPT_SALT_LENGTH will display the expected length of the salt string. DES accepts a two-character salt. MD5 accepts 12 characters. You can also check to see whether any of the following flags are set: CRYPT_STD_DES, CRYPT_EXT_DES, CRYPT_MD5, CRYPT_BLOWFISH. To do this, issue a command such as:
echo CRYPT_MD5
A numeral 1 indicates it is supported; a 0 indicates that it is not.
