Is your problem solved? You never did show the code that solved your problem. If not, see encryption confusion, you need to get the salt values, on linux it is in /etc/shadow.

This super simple example shows the basics:

#!/usr/bin/perl use warnings; use strict; print "Standard crypt output\n"; print crypt("password","sa"), "\n"; #glibc's implementation that takes care of this. Since perl on # Linux uses glibc, you get this automagically. When the salt looks li +ke # $1$...., it will encrypt the password using MD5. e.g. print "MD5 crypt output\n"; print crypt("password","\$1the_salt\$"), "\n"; print "SHA crypt output\n"; print crypt("password","\$2the_salt\$"), "\n";

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
