vBulletin 2.3.2 Migration help (passwords)

Hi guys,

I'm the system administrator for a big bulletin board. The higher-ups decided that we need to switch to a different bulletin board system (with MSSQL as a backend Shocked Not my money so I'm happy)

The issue now is the new forum software is NOT vBulletin. And they want all the users transferred without a hitch.

Now I've converted all the data from MySQL to MSSQL with no problems thus far. The issue now is to adjust the board we ARE using's code to be able to identify the users who logs in correctly based on the hashed passwords.

I'm not interested in cracking/exposing their passwords (we have over 10 000 members)

I would just like to know the algorithm used in 2.3.2 to be able to use/replicate the same code to check the login successfully.

Any help would be appreciated!

Something we wrote ourselves. Like I said, I'm not the decision maker, just the unlucky bastard having to cope with their demands

Probably algorithm is:

md5(md5($pass).$salt))

Google proved that yes, but I don't know enough about vBulletin to know where the $salt comes from unfortunately.

I'll try and download a demo copy of vBulletin?

Nevermind, for those out there. Version 2.3.2 looks like its without salt and just a normal MD5 encryption. Was able to successfully integrate
