MD5 and passwords

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



Hi,

I have build a website where users need to identity themselfs using basic
auth. I have then installed auth_pgsql_mod on my Apache 2.0 server (Redhat
8.0), and that works fine. I would like to store the passwords in the
database in MD5 encrypted form, and that works fine to, if I write the md5
encrypted string in the database manually. When I use the md5sum to
translate plain text to md5 on the command line on my Linuxbox, and place
that in the database, it works fine. Now I want users to be able to write
plain written text on the webpage, and then the page translates that into a
md5 string and from there store the md5 string in the database. But it is
not the same encryption, I get two different encrypted strings if I use the
md5() function. Why?

Kelvin :-)
