This is the format of adroc's output from "makepasswd": "$1$" + base64-encoded string (a salt) + "$" + another base64-encoded string (the hashed password). No quotes there.
The source for makepasswd on my system is available here: http://packages.debian.org/lenny/makepasswd. After examining that code, I can't see anything that disagrees with what I said. And this is a standard format, so some other "makepasswd" should produce the same output.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
