Distributing Usernames/Passwords/etc.

You can create as many users with the same password and different salts as you like

Yes but since the client will only sent the hashed password with the salt to the server, you will need to use the same salt on the second database, if you want the hashed passwords to match.

simple, edit the javascript to send another version of the un-hashed password...

you always can modify everything to your wills... you just need to know why you do it and know the risks of doing so...

[Marco van Herwaarden]

We already said ti could be done, but only by lowering the security level vB is offering.

Yes, this is possible ... however you only spoke about register.php.
Anyway, it's not recommended

I don't want a plaintext password to be pushed around. That's too much of a security risk I'm willing to accept. I'm just wanting to push a MD5 password around.

I know vBulletin created the MD5 clientside as well as the our current Hashing for vB3.x.
