Scott Gray commented on OFBIZ-1406:
-----------------------------------
I'm still not sure of this, it seems too implementation specific. What if
another system comes along that has a ":" in the same position but adds the
salt to the end of the password instead of the start? Also a standard system
is having to check for an OSCommerce password on every login even though none
may exist.
I think this could be a perfect opportunity for a plug-in, we could keep a
library of password migration classes. When a customer needs to migrate from
another system you just configure OFBiz to use the plugin for that system and
as each user logs in it validates the existing password then updates it to the
OFBiz version.

> If company replaces their OSCommerce systems with ofbiz, they would like to
> have the customer records imported including the OSCommerce generated
> encrypted passwords.
> This patch will make ofbiz recognize these passwords and let OSCommerce users
> login to ofbiz successfully This patch is however linux based because it is
> making use of the Linux operating system command 'md5sum' which operates
> exactly the same as the php md5 'C' program.
