MD5 password moving to Drupal ?

Hey guys

I'm moving my site over to to the Drupal CMS. The current site is all handcoded with WebWiz bolted onto the side.

I've currently got over 11,000 members which i would like to move into the Drupal database, however the issue I'm having is moving the hashed passwords over.

I've written a script to export from WebWiz SQLServer into Drupal mySQL however it appears that the password encryption between the two systems is different.

Drupal uses MD5, what does WebWiz use ?

I see there is a password and salt field in the db, is it possible to retrieve MD5 hashes from WebWiz ??

Thanks for any advice and assistance

Cheers

Web Wiz Forums does use mySQL's md5() function. It uses its own code to handle the passwords. The salt and password are basic text fields.

So for converting the database over you just need to leave the field types as they are.
