the problem I have is that I store the password in the database as a Password field. However when I wish to use DBI to connect to another mysql database I cannot use the Password stored in the database as it comes out encrypted. I really don't want to store the unencrypted password anywhere on the system. Is there a way to let DBI/mysql know that the password I am giving them is ALREADY encrypted?
Why don't you just encrypt it yourself and store it in a VARCHAR?
