Distributing Usernames/Passwords/etc.

[ManagerJosh]

Can anyone give me some sample code & variables to start off with to hack up one of the Data APIs so I can distribute usernames/passwords/emails and any other misc. data

[Marco van Herwaarden]

No, that can not be done without reducing the vB security level to an unacceptable level (in my opinion).

So how are we to distribute username/password information? Mind you password is already encoded... :/

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Maybe you should explain a bit more what you want to do.

[ManagerJosh]

During the registration process, submit usernames/passwords/emails to another database

Bug me more over IRC

[Marco van Herwaarden]

Another vB database?

You can store the eMail and Username wherever you want.
The Password however never does reach your Server.

if you play with the register.php file, you can create a sql query BEFORE the password is encoded to push the data in another dB, or send them by email, but why would you play with such a security risk ?!

[Andreas]

No you can't.
As said, the plaintext password never reaches the Server.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

PAssword already get's hashed on the client (javascript), and like kirby say it would be a huge security risk not to do so.

The only way that MIGHT be possible is to create teh user on the second system with the same salt, but not even sure it would work then.
