RT 4 user's password encryption

RT Users
1

All,

What is the encryption used for the RT 4 privileged user’s password in MySQL? It is a new RT4 database.

We were able to log on to other internal websites configured to use RT3(MySQL) database’s Users table. We used the following within other internal websites:

“
AuthMySQLUserTable Users
AuthMySQLNameField Name
AuthMySQLPasswordField Password
AuthMySQLPwEncryption md5
AuthMySQLEnable On
”

Thank you,

RT4 uses salted SHA512. Take a look at IsPassword in lib/RT/User.pm.

RT3(MySQL) database’s Users table. We used the following within other
internal websites:

"
