Hello All,
I'm going to be storing some simple data in an xml file.
The data will have information for session, including username/passwords.
I want to encrypt the username & password associated w/the session.
What's the easiest method/functions to do this? I've only done md5 and
matched
the input against the stored string.
The program would:
1) Prompt the user for the password when starting. This is the password
used to decrypt all sessions,
and has nothing to do w/the stored/encrypted password.
2) Decrypt the session data in the xml files
3) Store the decrypted session data in memory.
4) Only if the user changes the session username/password would I write
to the file (the encrypted) version.
Thanks,
- Ben
