[PHP] Crypt Function-- Encryption and Decryption

[Mulley, Nikhil]

Hi All,

 

I have a password file , which has all the passwords words encrypted with the 
Crypt Function

I know that Crypt uses one-way algorithm to generate the encryptions and PHP 
has no Decrypt function , ( but can it be developed to have one ?)

But I am eager to know whether it is really impossible to decrypt the passwords 
, if possible , how it caqn be done. like salts and all

Can somebody *please* throw more light on Crypt() and Encryption and Decryption 
in this thread.

Thanks,

Nikhil
