Re: crypt/Password

What you could do is send a newly generated password to them, and then allow them to change the password on your site to something easier to remember... Jeff At 11:56 PM 2/3/2002 +0800, Phil wrote:

Hi there, I'm creating a user/password table that will use either Mysql Password or PHP Crypt function to encrypt the data. I know these functions are non reversible for good reason, but how do I deal with a situation where I want to email out a forgotton password? How can I get the passwrd back to a form recognisable to the user? Thanx in advance Phil
