Stoyan, thanks for the info, however that didn't work either. Maybe if I
give a bit more info, all I'm doing is a simple php page
username
current_password
new_password
confirm_new_password
I then run a check to make sure the username is there in both the vpopmail
and egroupware, then I check the current password, since vpopmail had it
in clear text also, if it checks out I then need to update the db to the
new passwords, this works well only problem is then I get errors that the
authdaemond: supplied password 'somepassword' does not match encrypted
password '$1$UPRJCLMh$ORbRQDIoGJ/g18WgT4/4O.'
I even tried it as crypt()
all i'm doing on the sql side is this
$pw_crypt = crypt($new)
$sql_vpop = $dbv->query("UPDATE `vpopmail` SET `pw_clear_passwd` = '$new',
`pw_passwd` = ('$pw_crypt') WHERE `pw_name` = '$username';");
This updates just fine but the auth then fails with the above error...
Hopefully this will give a little more info on how I can get this to work.
Thanks,
Joe
