Dear all, I'm a little bit lost with Crypto method.
I need authentication from a mobile app towards web2py.
If I'm not in wrong, web2py now uses sha512 as default to crypt auth user 
password.
>From my iOS app I'm sending the password encrypted with the same Hash 
Algorithm sha512, because I don't want to send the password 
clear through the net
>From web2py console I can do:

b='sha512$$83d97b71499bee6b9d42dee9d3a6e5d00ecc8c891346d25d1909b3aac9abaa0ad4864fe4eacf159cd3f4a0ad764178d014ac378dfffc5e4023f6dbcfb0992648'

where b is exactly my mobile password string that I'm sending to web2py 
trough "Json"

>>> b

'sha512$$83d97b71499bee6b9d42dee9d3a6e5d00ecc8c891346d25d1909b3aac9abaa0ad4864fe4eacf159cd3f4a0ad764178d014ac378dfffc5e4023f6dbcfb0992648'

>>> a= CRYPT(digest_alg='sha512',salt=False)('pippo')[0]

now ,if I do a==b, it returns True

The problem is that I'm not able to compare auth.user password with my 
mobile password!

Both are encrypted, with the same algorithm, but auth.login_bare(user,psw) 
returns alway false because it wants clear-password

The solution to me appears that I have to compare the two encrypted 
password, but may be on the wrong way.

Help please...

Marco
