authn_dbd: what format for encrypted password?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Dear Experts,

I'm setting up mod_authn_dbd for the first time (having previously used the 3rd-party mod_auth_pgsql with apache2.0) and I'm unsure how the passwords should be encoded in the database. The docs at http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_authn_dbd.html just say:

  "The query must take a single string (typically SQL varchar) argument (username),
   and return a single value (encrypted password)."

Do I have a choice of encryption formats? How do I tell it which format I have used? (Is there some more documentation somewhere that I have missed?)

Many thanks for any advice you can offer.

Regards,

Phil.
