Cram-MD5 encryption

pembo13 · 03-22-2004, 03:29 PM

Hello,

How do I go about genearating CRAM-MD% encrypted words?

The only utility I've comeup with so far is grub-md5-crypt.

I'd like to believe there are other ways, preferably a way which can be called from a PHP script easily.

Thank you.

You mean something like:
echo test | md5sum

Hey thanks,

But i I foudn out i was tring for the wrong encryption. What i really wanted was BSD style crypt() passwords. Openssl did the job for me.

Thanks

To over answer your question, here's the PHP function I came up with to make use of the openssl shell command to do the encryption. Hope it helps:

PHP Code:


			
function passwd($password,$salt=""){

        if(!$salt) return exec('openssl passwd -1 "'.$password.'"');

        else{

            $salt = str_replace(" ", "", $salt);

          return exec('openssl passwd -1 -salt '.$salt.' "'.$password.'"');

        }

}
