If I have a password that I am using for my clients and it was created using PHP with a MD5 hash.
Can I have a perl application check their password against the one created in using PHP???
In Perl I do it like this....
In the form ask for whatever I need, and a password, then I get the database record, and get the first two characters of the stored encrypted password, I use it as the salt to encrypt the password they entered, and then check if they are the same.
It works for Perl, but I have not tried it for a password created in PHP.
Thank you,
Richard
