Encrypt password.

Post by thbeer » Thu 16 Jun 2005 20:51

Sorry if this is a stupid question. But I was wondering what the best way is to encrypt the password being sent over the wire. I am using MySQLDirect.Net in a VB .net.

If somebody can just point me in the right direction I would be thankful.

Thanks,

MySQLDirect .NET doesn't have public interface for password encryption, but inside for authentication SHA1 algorithm is used.
