>> PASSWORD() encryption is non-reversible. PASSWORD() does not perform
password encryption in the same way that Unix passwords are encrypted. 

Hello,

we are using mysql password() function to encrypt users' passwords (I mean
the users of our web application).

Is the algorythm somewhere documented, so that we could use/implement the
same algorythm in java in order to migrate to oracle without resetting
users' passwords.

Thank you in advance for advice
