Hi all,

I'm doing JDBC, I'm newbie to Databases. I want to encrypt and decrypt password column in Mysql database. I need your guidance.

Thanks,
Ranjeet.

yo don't decrypt passwords
its a one way trip
encrypt the users password,using what ever mode you choose to use (could use a front end function or an internal MySQL encryption function
when you request a password repeat the encryption process and compare the encrypted values. providing you use the same method to encrypt then there is no problems
storing passwords in a db in clear is a bad move
