Re: Password Encryption

Why would you want to do this?

you could use instead the built in security of

validation list

or

system user

Is anyone aware of a good one-way password encryption system which can be used
in an RPG program?  I'm building a web application, and I'd like to use this
method to save a user's password instead of saving it directly to the
database.

Thanks - Chris
