It should be possible, check this section of the documentation: http://doc.otrs.org/3.2/en/html/external-backends.html#configuration-customer-auth-backend-db You should set $Self->{'Customer::AuthModule::DB::CryptType''} to 'plain' in order to authenticate against the unencrypted passwords. I *need* to add that storing unencrypted passwords is a high security risk, and a bad idea, but I think you already know that!! -- Mike --------------------------------------------------------------------- OTRS mailing list: otrs - Webpage: http://otrs.org/ Archive: http://lists.otrs.org/pipermail/otrs To unsubscribe: http://lists.otrs.org/cgi-bin/listinfo/otrs
