Re: AW: AW: passwords / password entry with MUI Xtra

If you mean, storing the _hashed_ passwords, mostly. I'm not sure that _anything_ is completely safe, and with security, "living paranoid" is best. But if you never store the actual password itself, you're probably covered. I suppose the level of paranoia ought to be balanced with the degree o

Re: passwords / password entry with MUI Xtra

Non-related answer, but a heads-up anyway. Beware using the debugger on MUI extra callbacks. If the dialog hasn't gone away before the debugger pops up, it's relatively easy to get in a situation where key and mouse events get sent to the bit bucket and the only way out is force-quitting direct

Re: passwords / password entry with MUI Xtra

It depends on what you mean by "safe". If .dcrs are simply compressed (as is my understanding), it shouldn't take someone who's determined very long to crack it. Given that you're only talking about a couple of lines of code and a few milliseconds at runtime to use hashes, isn't it better to d

Re: passwords

Now that I'm at my desk, I just ran some timing tests. The JS syntax MD 5 Chuck referenced function takes ~2ms on my machine, and the SHA-256 routine takes ~10mx. (PowerMac G4, 1.25MHz.) So, hashing the password value isn't very costly in terms of CPU either way. On May 17, 2006, at 11:29 AM,

Re: passwords

Just to add to the "store the password hashed" talk, if you're starting from scratch, I'd go with SHA-1 rather than MD5. If you really go the full monty, you can go with SHA-256 ( BSD license) and salt the password before you generate the hash, as in: has

Re: Penworks site?

Does anyone know what happened to the penworks site (www.penworks.com)? I've been getting a "Server not found" message for the past few days. I get a web page with the text "Host not found". But it's a server @ 204.14.56.30 returning that message. Virtual server configuration problem, maybe?
