Firstly, hello and thanks for any help you can provide. I have googled, searched this forum, and the other forum with no luck...

How do I check the password hash in the database vs the one in the cookie?

the cookie hash is b30ae4a1e6fcc61081fef158a1d4e4a8

What do I do to the hash in the user table to get it to match the hash in the cookie?

I've tried the following:

PHP Code:

$passwordHashed = md5(md5(md5($userPassword) . $userSalt) . "MYLICENSE#here"); 


where $userSalt is the salt from the user table, and $userPassword is the hash in the user table.

Also is this documented anywhere?

Cheers,
Gordon

ok I found the answer

for anyone who needs to know, to make the password in your user table match (for authentication) the cookie:

$cookiePassword == md5($dataPassword . "yourlicensenumber");

basically it is the license number appended to the hash in the table, and then the md5 of that.
