calculate a hash of the pass the user enters and store that. When the user enters a pass again to get the data, then hash this pass and see if it matches the stored hash. If it does , then send the user the data. create a table that stores username, and hashed passwords for authentication. HTH

I need to ask a user for a pass when he enters the data, encrypt it and show him the data only if he enters the pass again. I know that pgp has a module that works with passwords instead of keys. I never tried this on Linux though. Any help will be appreciated. thanks berber -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
