An example: #/usr/local/bin/php <?php print crypt("salt")."n"; print crypt("thesame")."n"; print crypt("again")."n"; ?> Output: i3lCe7C6q27tM i3vw3zP1zAXbk i3DLFUqiVZx.U (Adding srand ((double) microtime() * 1000000); in the beginning didn't help) --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Full Bug description available at: http://bugs.php.net/?id=8080
