I agree. The point here isn't that we're using a better hashing method, even if a lot of people *think* that's the point. The point is we're using a modern algorithm that has nice properties like "you can't impersonate the client by steeling the verifier, or even by snooping the exchange". But "sasl" might be even better. -- Robert Haas EnterpriseDB: http://www.enterprisedb.com The Enterprise PostgreSQL Company -- Sent via pgsql-hackers mailing list (pgsql-hackers@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-hackers
