I have an existing database and a table of usernames/passwords. Passwords there are simply encrypted *md5* hashes.
I'm also writing web2py application which must be able to authenticate users based on this third party db. No registration, group membership, password reset, etc, none of this is required. User should simply be able to type in his username (email) and password, password should be converted to *md5* hash and compared against the matching record on the third party database. I understand I need to override a few methods in the *auth class*? Maybe there is already built in machinery for this? If someone could point me to the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.
