everything to do with mysql
I try make it clearer, sorry for not so in first post
customer relationship manager add users into mysql
we want not to use apache auth of encrypt, but use md5 for longer password
apache use variant of md5, called md5 -apr, but mysql md5 only uses the -1
type
so, when CRM add userlike
INSERT INTO users (..other....`appass`) values (...other... 'MD5('$PASS')
....
the md5 -1 that mysql uses is not compatible so apache auth fail. the
variant is apaprently add
$apr1$<up to 8 chars>$md5passwordhere,
making allabove line the salted md5.
I try to get mysql and apache to play nice, but thy do not because mysql and
apache not use same method, hence my attempt to work around, even SHA same
affect, i am try use anything but DES encrypt('$PASS')
sadly that only thing that work happily witrh each other.
openssl have ability to do this so not sure why mysql not have option
Sure someone had same problem and simple work around to have mysql use
correct md5, but no google fu work
