save passwords as sha2 or such like instead?
further, it would appear that since the "old password" "new password" is
set mysql server side, then php will have no bearing what so ever on
how passwords are saved, seeing as it's mysql which will run the
password() function and not php :)
ps too bad on the ol php 4 job

Hi,
I have a clean php 4.4.7 compile but it still shows the old mysql lib
version. I can't find where it is picking that up at. Is it just built
into the php sources that way?
Yes, it is included with the php source. If you want it to use newer libs, then
download the devel packages for the newer mysql version and at compile time,
point the configure script for php use the newer devel libs instead. That
should be all that is needed.
Good idea! I may end up doing that.
My goal is to position this so that a move to php5 would work and not
be stuck with a bunch of old-style mysql passwords that need updated
by users (since the original passwords are not retrievable of course
for conversion unless I store plain text copies, which I do not want
to do).
Thanks for your input.
