Hi All,<br><br>we are looking for a solution for a migration problem, any feedback or suggestion for the same will be useful,<br><br>Migration On PHP 5.3 is failing as behavior of crypt API has changed, we were
using first two letters of user name as salt for crypt API. <br><br>for
eg: if user name is bob then salt for md5 encryption would be,<br>
<br>$salt = '$1$bo$';<br><br>but, this is causing crypt API to return a
different value compared to earlier versions and it is returning a different
value relative to previous call every time apache is restarted. <br><br>
for this, right now we are resetting passwords to username. Is this fine or should we generate a random key let admin user communicate the details to any individual users?<br><br>feedback on this matter will be useful.<br>
<br>If
you know the reason why crypt is returning different value compared
to earlier versions or any solution this problem please share the same.<br>
<br>finally we are thinking of eliminating the usage of crypt API and use md5 instead, any feedback on this matter will be helpful as well.<br><br>Thanks,<br>MAK
