Password & salt encryption

[zero_ZX]

Hi,
I have been thinking either to use impex, or to custom code this into my registration script.
Any way, i have a script to register an account on another of my databases (non-vbulletin).
Passwords are stored in plan text.

I want the user to be added to the vbulletin database, and I dunno if it would be smartest to add them via the registration script or via impex.

I'm kinda stuck with my own registration script, as i got this:

$sql = "INSERT INTO user SET username='".$in_user."' , usergroupid=2 , passworddate=0000-00-00 , email='".$in_email."' , showvbcode=1 , usertitle=Member , customtitle=0, joindate='".$time."'
But I don't really know how to insert the password or salt..

If i used impex, would it be possible to run impex as a cron, and how could i set it up for my own database? I tried to read this thread:

But it didn't help me much :/

Please advice, thank you very much

You will be best off using the 'User' datamanager. Here's an older thread at vbulletin.org:

That might get you started or perhaps there is some newer information over there for vB4 if you search around.
