[rt-users] password corruption problem - new install

[Paul Grondahl]

hello,

i'm new to the list so bear with me if this problem has been discussed
earlier.

got rt 3.0.1 up and running a few days ago. i have not come very far :( as
there seems to be some sort of password corruption/encryption problem going
on. 

i can log in as root with the default password. i created user accounts but
i am not able to log in with any of these accounts. at one point i changed
the root password and i could then no longer log in as root. had to drop and
re-initialize the database to get it working again. i checked the user
id/password in the database using the mysql client and noticed that the
hashed password value is the same for all the users i create regardless of
which password i set.

platform is redhat 7.3
apache 1.3.27 with mod_perl compiled statically per the manual's
instructions
mysql 4.0.12
perl 5.6.1


all help much appreciated!
