Certainly it's a good thing -- until the client asks for another password.
At this point, I have four logon and password combinations to use. I
can tell the client if they use one of those, then they can login.
However if they want their own, then I have no idea of what the
algorithm was/is and thus no way of generating a new combination for
them.
You see, the problem here is not that I can't set up an authorization
scheme -- I can do that easily enough. The problem is that I don't
know how the one currently in place on my client's server works in
generating passwords. If I knew that, then I could generate the
password myself.
Cheers,
