Hi David,
Thanks for the reply.
Unfortunately, thats not quite the problem. I want to create passwords
that will work in the pg_shadow table. So, I need them to be calculated
in exactly the same way PostgreSQL does when you do a CREATE USER
matthew WITH PASSWORD testing.
For example, If I create a user in PostgreSQL called 'matthew' with
password 'testing', I get pg_shadow entry with passwd:
md5759af56ffaf865413f7a50b4fae20ea3
but, if I do a simple md5 of 'testing' like you've done below, I get:
ae2b1fca515949e5d54fb22b8ed95575
As you can see, those don't match.
Perhaps I'm missing something though?
Cheers
Matthew.

Matthew,
I just use something like
$pass = $_POST['pass'];
$e_pass = md5($passs);
Maybe not as secure as two md5s, but have you ever tried to
reverse one
md5 checksum?
