Hi Nelson,
Just an idea.
The encrypt() function is a 1 way hash. You may just create a password
change page that selects the crypted value of the password, against
the supplied crypted password supplied by the actual user: Then insert
the new crypted password back to the database.
example snippet:
...
if (crypt($Password) == $mysql_password)
{
echo "Correct password";
}
....
Another alternative that i have in mind is you may try brute force
tools like THC Hydra and Medusa. But still i bet this is a production
server, you might not want to do this on a live system without
permission from upper management.
