Hi,
I've been trying to encrypt the passwords in mySQL using SHA1 or MD5 without any luck for the last several days.
---------------------------+ | 844 | bogdan | Crypt-Password | == | 55MCU5TXMoKsA | +-----+------------+---------------+----+-------------------------------
okay. attribute set to Crypt-Password. however, when you changed to SHA1 or MD5 you DIDNT change this attribute. from the Documentation, you can see Header Attribute Description ------ --------- ----------- {clear} User-Password clear-text passwords {cleartext} User-Password clear-text passwords {crypt} Crypt-Password Unix-style "crypt"ed passwords {md5} MD5-Password MD5 hashed passwords {smd5} SMD5-Password MD5 hashed passwords, with a salt {sha} SHA-Password SHA1 hashed passwords {ssha} SSHA-Password SHA1 hashed passwords, with a salt {nt} NT-Password Windows NT hashed passwords {x-nthash} NT-Password Windows NT hashed passwords {lm} LM-Password Windows Lan Manager (LM) passwords. the error log posted clearly showed rlm_pap bleating away that it was being told to use MD5 or SHA but that only Crypt-Password attribute was present. alan
