Encrypt a password Edit

Asallai

Dear All,

I know this is really complicated and first of all I don't find why it is demand, but our customer would like to handle the logins in NAV, more over the Windows Authentication. My idea to run a form with login and password after the company choosing phase. After this I have to identify the input password with the existed one. It is okay.
I know the NAV has a method for encrypting the password ("Hello" is "~ž±Çü…6NčĽ") but could I call this encrypting method? It is possible to reach this internal function of NAV to encrypt my input text? :?

In summary I don't like to see the stored password in the database what I created when a user is giving a password.
Thank you.

updated: or if I call the User table in my code and use the Password validation it is possible to get back the encrypted result? :-o

Sorry for this! Meanwhile I'm writing this post, I found the solution.
I make a reference for the User table, give the Input text for the User table's Password field with validation, and it is result the encrypted text
Thanks anyway!

No, you can't use it. u can only use the password field self in the table.
Also is there no decrypt function

This sounds really interesting, because it means that you can check the password from C/AL Code ! (may be usefull to secure some really really critical transactions or something like that...) - or did I misunderstand something?

Indeed, you can check the password from C/AL (for Database logins). This topic shows some example code: How to verify user password

Yes , that is what I mean. I need a confirmation (another) before a process.
Thanks a lot!
