I am using SHA1 cypher to input passwords an sql database. I am not using the sql password function so that i can compare the passwords directly out of the database. but when i try to use the mysql_connect function i assume it uses password() to check what I have entered.
- Is there a way to stop it
- If not is there a workaround
- Can I modify the user table in mysql without any explosions? (thinking of adding an extra column for my encrypted password)
