Password encryption method

[Nakor]

Hey I've recently been trying to code my own user registration/login system for my site that will work alongside VB but I cannot for the life of me work out the EXACT method VB uses for encryption when setting/reading their set password cookie. I know they use an md5 mix of the persons password and that randomly generated key in their user row but aside from that i cannot work out the specifics. Could someone help me out with the EXACT encryption method they use in the form of an example?

Thanks SO much in advace =)

md5(md5(md5(password) . 'salt')) . 'LicenseNo')

Really? Didn't realise it used my license number in there, lemme try =)

[Nakor]

Didnt work you have an extra ) in there somewhere?

[Nakor]

echo md5(md5(md5($row['password']) . $row['salt']) . 'custid');
echo md5(md5(md5($row['password'] . $row['salt'])) . 'custid');
Tried both of those and neither match the cookie =(

[Andreas]

I guess $row['password'] is the value of column password in table user?
This ia already md5(md5('password') . 'salt')

And it is not CustID but LicenseNo (found at the top of each PHP file).

Cheers, lemme try.

ok I tried it like this:
echo md5($row['password'] . 'LicenseID');
Yet it still doesnt match =(
Also I confirmed that this is definately my license ID and not my customer ID.

and yep $row['password'] is the password field from the database.
