	Hey I installed phpBB forum on my system after I worked with WWF. I want to synochrize the sql database with my new mySQL database. The idea is to build a script which will make a text file with the username, password and email. The only problem is that the password is encoded and I don't really know how to go back and get the original password, I will appreciate any help. Thanks in advance Oz

	You can't get the original password back.

	What you can do is just give everyone a new password, then email them with the code already written into the software their new password (ie.. the forgot password routine).
