Hello all..

I want to intergrate the registration from my site and the forums into one and I need to know how to encrypt the password for the forums, and what other things you need to know about the vbulletin registrar.

My site is coded in Coldfusion (.cfm)

Help is much, much appreciated.

It'll depend on the board's encryption with your site's encryption. What encryption does vbulletin use? MD5 encryption? In this case, I believe you can just use CF's hash() to store and to test new passwords as well as preserve the old ones.

Didn't work.. Anybody else?

Have you got a script for it? Maybe you put in more than one hash?

Password stored in the database:
md5(md5(password) . salt)

Password stored in the cookie:
md5(md5(md5(password) . salt) . licensenumber)
I was playing around with the vBulletin password encryption and I figured it out to be something like that also. That is a version taken from the vBulletin forums.

I don't really like to link to other forums, but this may help you. http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=71482&page=1

<cfset hash1 = "#hash('lakisic1')# . salt">
<cfset hash2 = "#hash(hash1)# . ******">
<cfoutput>#hash(hash2)#</cfoutput>

That's the equilivent of it in cf and it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

Anybody at all?
