I'm sorry, I somehow missed few characters while copying form unix machine. The actual encrypted string is òOú«#µ7zFá73Y¯ (in hex it is 06 f2 4f fa ab 23 b5 7f 37 9e 46 e1 37 33 9f af)
I have no idea about perl and so now I'm confused as in hte perl script I see it's using a digest::md5() object to encrypt the password and so thought it should be same md5() as in php. If you can guide me to some place where i can look for further info will be of much help to me.

By definition md5 is 32 characters. -Rasmus -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
