Hey everyone.. I ask a ton of questions on here, and thanks for the help and patience from everyone. Anyhow, I am trying to Encrypt a password for my end users. I have done so in the MySQL db, by simply going ... PASSWD('mypass'), but it returns something such as "3afi4004idgv", and my original never works. Is there a way that i could "hash #" out the passwords instead of making a boggus number? Or should I not even care about the database, and simply ENCRYPT the passwords using PHP? Thanks! bryan
