  • Secure Password Protection

    I worked out a way to allow userlists and passwords to be downloaded without people finding out the password. Its fairly easy. All you have to do is have an ini file called whatever pleases you say password.ini and in this file will contain all the passwords encrypted. i think it is unbreakable but it could be done using bruteforce. Anyhow:
    1. Create an ini file with the users and a blank password field.
    2. Prompt for password then save to a txt file and get the crc value from the text file and save it to the password field in the ini file. Now thats the insert password done now to access:
    1. Download or whatever the ini file.
    2. Prompt for a password and save it to a temporary text file.
    3. Get the crc value from this and match it to the ini files crc.
    4. Just do a simple if command and then your off.
    Ohh and dont forget to add a delete txt file after it has been read coz otherwise people could read the txt file. Ohh no.

    Anyhow hope this helped u i worked on it for a while till it drove me crazy [img]/ubbthreads/images/icons/crazy.gif[/img] but then it clicked...well anyhow im rambling on now so u can ignore the rest of this msg unless u wanna hear about this holiday i had and we went to a private island and we had se......nah u dont wanna hear this.
