ID: 15769 Updated by: sniper@php.net -Summary: php-4.0 crypt("abc") != php-4.1 crypt("abc") Reported By: php@8304.ch -Status: Open +Status: Bogus Bug Type: *Encryption and hash functions Operating System: linux PHP Version: 4.1.1 New Comment: This is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2002-02-27 19:53:56] php@8304.ch On the same system after upgrade, the result of crypt with only one arguments has another format: before (php 4.0.6) it was the standard 13 chars string, and now this md5-like hash is comming: "$1$ngOfu9A.$AoUUzzXjwxQiqKq7c2wDt1"... Shouldn't the default behaviour of crypt() stay the same on a specific system ? This way it breaks a lots of customers scripts on the web server on upgrade, and this is *very* annoying. (no, I can't tell all people: rewrite all your scripts and use 2 args with the crypt command). Isn't there a way to tell at compliation time: crypt() defaults to DES?
