Hi there,
There's something I don't understand. The same string does not give the same md5 hash everytime. I wanted to find a way to check someone's password but the following script obviously shows that it's not possible that way :
So in short. How can I check someone's password?
Thanks for your help
Santiago
PS: By the way, I have exactly the same problem with MySQL.

doveadm-pw
DOVEADM-PW(1) Dovecot DOVEADM-PW(1)NAME
doveadm-pw - Dovecot's password hash generator
SYNOPSIS
doveadm [-Dv] pw -l
doveadm [-Dv] pw [-p password] [-r rounds] [-s scheme] [-u user] [-V]
doveadm [-Dv] pw -t hash [-p password] [-u user]
DESCRIPTION
doveadm pw is used to generate password hashes for different password schemes and optionally verify the generated hash.
All generated password hashes have a {scheme} prefix, for example {SHA512-CRYPT.HEX}. All passdbs have a default scheme for passwords
stored without the {scheme} prefix. The default scheme can be overridden by storing the password with the scheme prefix.
OPTIONS
Global doveadm(1) options:
-D Enables verbosity and debug messages.
-v Enables verbosity, including progress counter.
Command specific options:
-l List all supported password schemes and exit successfully.
There are up to three optional password schemes: BLF-CRYPT (Blowfish crypt), SHA256-CRYPT and SHA512-CRYPT. Their availability
depends on the system's currently used libc.
-p password
The plain text password for which the hash should be generated. If no password was given doveadm(1) will prompt interactively for
one.
-r rounds
The password schemes BLF-CRYPT, SHA256-CRYPT and SHA512-CRYPT supports a variable number of encryption rounds. The following table
shows the minimum/maximum number of encryption rounds per scheme. When the -r option was omitted the default number of encryption
rounds will be applied.
Scheme | Minimum | Maximum | Default
----------------------------------------------
BLF-CRYPT | 4 | 31 | 5
SHA256-CRYPT | 1000 | 999999999 | 5000
SHA512-CRYPT | 1000 | 999999999 | 5000
-s scheme
The password scheme which should be used to generate the hashed password. By default the CRAM-MD5 scheme will be used. It is also
possible to append an encoding suffix to the scheme. Supported encoding suffixes are: .b64, .base64 and .hex.
See also http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/PasswordSchemes for more details about password schemes.
-t hash
Test if the given password hash matches a given plain text password. The plain text password may be passed using the -p option.
When no password was specified, doveadm(1) will prompt interactively for one.
-u user
When the DIGEST-MD5 scheme is used, also the user name must be given, because the user name is a part of the generated hash. For
more information about Digest-MD5 please read also: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/Authentication/Mechanisms/DigestMD5
-V When this option is given, the hashed password will be internally verified. The result of the verification will be shown after the
hashed password, enclosed in parenthesis.
EXAMPLE
The first password hash is a DIGEST-MD5 hash for jane.roe@example.com. The second password hash is a CRAM-MD5 hash for john.doe@exam-
ple.com.
doveadm pw -s digest-md5 -u jane.roe@example.com
Enter new password:
Retype new password:
{DIGEST-MD5}9b9dcb4466233a9307bbc33708dffda0
doveadm pw
Enter new password:
Retype new password:
{CRAM-MD5}913331d8782236a8ecba7764a63aa27b26437fd40ca878d887f11d81245c2c6b
