It's depends upon your needs, but if you're on a Unix system why not just access the system crypt function. You could create a PostgreSQL C function to easily access it. Just look in contrib for an example of the code. If you're on a Windows system I'd say give up now unless you want to implement the entire crypt trapdoor algorithms. -DEJ > Hi, > > Does PostgreSQL 6.4.2 have a build in Unix crypt() function?
