Yeah, that is all well and good, but it is not the lack of our skill to encrypt the passwords, it is the fact that the Tp5wdba.exe (Classic's runtime executer) is what opens the user/password files and does the validation.. and Only Phil not even DBA has the source to that program.. Phil has since washed his hands of the Computer world and now sells life insurance... go figure.

Now if everybody converted to Evo, then yeah, I would have encrypted passwords long ago.

Sorry..

I mean, you can't bypass the check in TP5wdba and do it yourself? That kinda sucks... And just when I had hope that TAS might actually have some value...

This would be an option for Evo only users. Classic would continue to run the way it does now.

I'm sick of hearing "can't do it because the ancient tas5 runtime was a steaming pile of garbage written by monkeys and rabid weasels" Well, you never actually used those words but you should have. I'd certainly welcome changes that would have broken classic compatibility.

This would be an option for Evo only users. Classic would continue to run the way it does now.

Or... what sort of encryption does TAS7 support? Is it AES or something? If it's something that allows for printable characters then maybe could Classic people enter the actual encrypted password string and still use the system?

Just wondering in case it ever came to needing to run Classic for some reason...

And if you just read the stuff that's still here it's probably more confusing than anything...
