What encryption type is used for passwords?

[mr2jswe]

Im trying to make .htaccess work in conjunction with vBulletin built-in user/passes through mod_auth_mysql.

I need to know what encryption type is used in MySQL for storing passwords?

Plaintext, Crypt_DES, MySQL, standard UNIX DES?
My board is a v3.0.6.

Anyone? :confused:

Ok, thanks Brent, that might explain my failed attempts so far. Ill follow that thought.

MD5(MD5(password.salt));

At least I think, I don't have a copy of the files to go double check at this moment
