crypt salt question

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

 



Hello,

 

I'm trying to move some app from postgresql to mysql but unable to find out
how to authenticate

against the current crypted passwords with php..

 

insert to database:

 

$cset = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ0123456789./";
$salt = substr($cset, time() & 63, 1) . substr($cset, time()/64 & 63, 1);
$password = crypt($password, $salt);   //pass crypted version of password
for further processing



$result = pg_query ("INSERT INTO users (username, password) VALUES
('$username', '$password')");

 

I read the crypt is one way encryption but how to compare the password
entered with the encrypted 

version if don't know the salt ??

 

 

Thanks,

 

Andras
