    Remove MDF encryption

    Posted 17 years 3 months ago
    • Is there a way to disable MD5 encryption for logins?

      I have imported some accounts into the jos_users table that never used MD5 encryption, so if i try logging in, it wont work.

      thanks.

    • probably your best bet is to write a script that goes through and encrypts all the plaintext pws in your jos_users table. safer that way anyway.

    • you can't decrypt md5, it's a one-way encryption. You just encrypt the password typed in to the encrypted pw, if they match, the pw's are the same.
