Which is exactly the same as normal login.

Also, how are we supposed to then hash the password with a salt? (Note this is
off the top of multiple head, no code access atm)

Which also limits the hashing types...

That and md5 isn't the most secure. And many lookup tables exist to try and get
your password from the hash.

Besides, if the zoo accepts hashes, if your hash is intercepted, you're back to
square one.


Also, if we expose the salt, it gives the same issues
