Comment	> Passwd's comparePassword() assumes that the old password is in the > same format the new one will be in (set in the configuration). This > need not always be true (in our case, we have a number of legacy > CRYPT passwords but we'd like the new ones to be SSHA). > > > > The attached patch looks for {scheme} and uses this as the password > (encryption) scheme to pass to Auth::getCryptedPassword(). It also > compares the passwords with the scheme identification stripped off, > as this makes the scheme identification case-insensitive. This sould > also fix the remaining issue of bug #2708.
