What encryption used for passwords

Post by jeroenk »

Hello,

How can I check against the passwords stored in the Mantis database? I used standard MYSQL functions like md5(), but none seem to return the value found in the database. We use Mantis 1.07

Kind regards, Jeroen

Can anyone please give me a code sample on how to recreate a MD5 encryption string from a password? When I use mysql's md5() method, I get a 64 caharacter string, while in the database I see 32 character strings. Ideally, I would do it in Java code though.
