Modify your application to collect new-style password hashes (created using crypt() for example) when it calculates an old-style hash and update the user record with the new hash (in a new column). In 6 months time you'll have new hashes for everyone who uses the application semi-regularly, the few that were missed by this should be able to be resolved by your support team. or just send them an email asking them to log into the application to confirm their user account. -- ââ 100% natural -- Sent via pgsql-general mailing list (pgsql-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-general
