Hi,

I wonder if it is possible to retrieve encrypted password somehow?
Like I have saved password (blueRays) in encrypted formate. How can I retrieve it "where password='blueRays' "?

Regards

Use your unencrypt function to decrypt the encrypted passwords in the where clause.
where unencrypt_function(password) = 'blueRays'

ohhh... didnt work :(

I used below command to encrypt the password:
insert into guestbook_admin values('abc',encrypt('hello'));

So I tried to retrieve encrypted password using:
  • select * from guestbook_admin where unencrypt_function(password)= 'hello';
  • select * from guestbook_admin where unencrypt(password)= 'hello';
  • select * from guestbook_admin where deencrypt(password)= 'hello';
  • select * from guestbook_admin where decrypt(password)= 'hello';


Also this page doesnt have any function which does reverse of encryption

Why are you posting MySQL questions on a Microsoft SQL Server forum?
