After being criticized for my last post about 2 way encryption of passwords i have decided to write a post about hashing your passwords. As was pointed out in my last post this is a more secure way of keeping your password data safe.

In this tutorial i will show you how you can easily encrypt and decrypt passwords using coldfusion

Here i am going to show you how to make a login script that will check users against a database for the user name and password. First of all we will need to make a login form, this is just going to be a basic form with a user name field, password field and a login button.

This guide will take you through the steps of setting up a datasource in the coldfusion administrator. To setup a datasource you will need to login to the coldfusion administrator. The Coldfusion administrator is usually found under /CFIDE/administrator/ you will then need to login with the password created on installation.
