Trying to understand what I'm doing. SHA1. sha1($pass.$salt)

[epixoip]

sha1(pass.salt) and sha1(salt.pass) are two different algorithms. if you need sha1(salt.pass) then you cannot use lite.

but if you have a hash in user:hash format, what leads you to believe it is a salted algorithm? are you sure the password is salted with the username? if so, are you positive the algorithm is sha1(pass.salt)?
