    Hi!
    i have been running mod_auth_mysql for years with those encryption types in my .htaccess files:

    Auth_MySQL_Encryption_Types Crypt_MD5 Plaintext Crypt_DES MySQL

    and it has worked like a dream...as you can see there are different types...this because i have different companies and scripts writing different types to my auth database.

    yesterday we installed the latest mod_aut_mysql and i see the new variable:
    AuthMySQLPwEncryption none
    with allowable values: none | crypt | scrambled | md5 | aes | sha1

    i have tied them all...and they dont work with the data in our database...the only thing that works is the "none" option if i submit a clear text user/pass in the db...any idea what might cause this? or what i can do to allow the same types as i had in prev version?

    Øyvind

      i have now tested the different scripts that writes to the auth db and have come to that they are using Auth_MySQL_Encryption_Types Crypt_MD5 MySQL

      is there any way to make Version 3.0.0 read those passes? both types via a .htaccess file?

      It looks like previously you were using a different mod_auth_mysql.  Auth_MySQL_Encryption_Types has never been a keyword in this version.

      And no, there is no way to handle two different encryption types with this version, and I doubt that  it will be added.

      Sorry,
      Jerry
