How to de-activate password encryption in slx 7.51?
Posted: 08 May 09 9:12 AM

I'm trying to add various user account functions to the portal that require me to be able to read and set the users password, obviously without the seed I can't achieve this. Therefore my question is if anyone knows a way of changing the seed or a way of avoiding encryption all together in the login process! Being able to set a new password is the most crucial part of what I've been asked to achieve so any help on this at all would be greatly appreciated! |

There are several threads on the forums regarding Password encryption.
In general, SLX Encryption is known secret, but we don't publicize it. No one told me, I found it several years ago, and now it is much easier to find out, if you know what to do.
Never the less, you may want to search around and find the information that has been previously shared... |

Thanks for the info I have already read all the threads I could find and tried all of the user data as the seed but to no avail, I guess I will have to look around again and try to figure out the seed in the encryption can't be turned off? I find myself in unknown territory really as this is the first time I've worked with slx as I'm just a contracted web developer, so thanks for the help!!  |

I've had a look around the site again and have now spent several hours trying to get the seed, I've had no luck and as I don't think anyone will share this information I would like to focus this thread back to my original question - how do you de-activate password encryption in slx 7.51? Which is prefered because there is no need for the password to be encrypted. I'd appreciate any help if this is at all possible. |

Hi Richie,
You might probably be going the wrong way about this. If the primary thing that you need to do is set a password:
contact.SaveWebAccess(true, 'password', 'password');
You just need the IContact.
Do you have a copy of reflector? An amazingly useful tool for any SalesLogix developer because it tells you exactly how the SLX guys have implemented much of this stuff - including the exact key that you are looking for.
