my question is: is it possible to use liveuser with mysql password function?
Hi, unfortunately I don't know the internals of LiveUser, but one thing I can say for sure is, that using MySQLs PASSWORD() is definitely a bad thing [tm]. MySQL AB itself states that this function may be changed without warning. You should probably watch out for a way to change the current system to use a more reliable way of storing your passwords. Hope that helps at least a bit :) Regards, Michael
