[RESOLVED] PHPBB forum problem?

[Scooby_Doo]

I installed phpbb on my site and I went through my database and I found the users section. The problem is that the password is encripted and I forgot mine. How do I unscript it to to the correct one?

Thanks in advance.

The password is not encrypted, it is hashed. And you can't reverse a hash, meaning that you can't get the password.

What you can do is to ask a moderator to change the password for you. If you are the only moderator create a new account, then copy the hashed password from that account to your old one and you get that password.

Ok, thanks. I found the place where I change my password and thats what I did.
Thanks for the help!!!
