Hiyas I've been meaning to write a perl script that lets me administer a user list, where the passwords are stored using the blowfish algorithm. Now, using regex's I'm able to retrieve all the relevant information, meaning the usernames, the passwords (encrypted of course) etc. Now, how do I check that a variable, which then consists of a plaintext string being the password, matches the one stored in the user list itself?
The user list itself is generated from the IRC bot Eggdrop. Everything that is stopping me from making this script (cgi based), is how to check if the pass specified via plaintext is the same as in the user list. Does anyone here know of method to do this? I tried looking into Crypt::Blowfish, but that got me nowhere. Any suggestions are more than welcome.
