Bruno,
I use an authenticate() function as a part of state maintenance in a PHP web
app. In the function, I generate an encrypted token that is then used in the
validation process on subsequent pages. md5 works, but I've been able to
brute-force crack it very quickly, so I'm looking for an alternative. Any
thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Mark
