Title: Import users (included password) from SMF to G2? Help me!
Post by: thongta on May 28, 2006, 05:36:13 PM
Hi everyone,
I'm on the way to intergrate G2 into SMF. I use a iframe to embed G2 to SMF. It's done.
Now, I need a script to run cron job, this script will import users database from SMF to G2 every 1 hour (may be other). I can writer this script with other forum, but I don't know convert from SHA-1 to MD5 password (SHA-1 is the encrypt method of SMF).
Who can see me how to import password from SMF to G2?
Thanks a lot.

It is impossible to convert directly. However there is no need to do this, as when a user logs on SMF will ask them to type in their password again so it can encript it correctly. (When a use logs on, SMF tries MD5ing the password, if that doesn't work it tries a few different methods before rejecting the password).

Good idea, winrules.
I view G2 database, and detect that MD5 is not use in G2.
How did G2 encrypt password?
