Re: [Phpwebsite-developers] crypt() problem with latest version on w2k and php 4.0.5

[Joel K. <jkl...@ea...>]

We ought to be using MD5 anyway.  There's no good reason to use crypt.  A 
simple function can be written (now) to compare passwords in crypt, and if 
they match, save the password (in another field perhaps) as an MD5 hash and 
then use that from that point on.
