hi,
i have 2 different applications. (1 is WEb application (asp.net), other
is windows forms app.)

Web application saves user information (username, pass) to database for
a while, using HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile method (using MD5).

i want to use this same information in windows forms app. so that users
can log in with their current user/pass.
But i cant use HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile method to get hash of
password.

i tried

System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider oMD5Hasher
= new System.Security.Cryptography.MD5CryptoServiceProvider();
System.Text.Encoding enc= System.Text.Encoding.ASCII;
string hashedpass =
BitConverter.ToString(oMD5Hasher.ComputeHash(enc.GetBytes(txtPass.Text)));

but this does not get same hash for same password string.

How can i get md5 hash of file so that produced hash will be same as
HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile method from windows forms without
using HashPasswordForStoringInConfigFile method.


Regards

Erdem
