--- Comment #15 from S <bl...@gmx.net> --- Hi, what I'm doing is to hash the user-entered password 999x on the client with a salt (visible in the JS code) on the OK-Click in my login form. Then I send it to Tomcat and have it compared to the stored hash (1000x hashed with the same salt). This way there is never send a unhashed password (even not when you are not using https, which you shouldn't) and you can configure the number of pre-hashing to your needs (to be safe against generating rainbow tables for your salt). This might be useful in times of modern GPUs executing billions of SHA1-hashes per second (2300M/s SHA1 hashes in 2009). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
