Default PHPBB3 Password Encryption

What Password Encryption method does PHPBB3 run under? I'm trying to create an integrated cms site that uses usernames and passwords from the forums ( phpbb3 ) to login to the main site.

They use a proprietary hash method using /dev/urandom and md5; check it out in the includes/functions.php file. The function is named 'phpbb_hash'.

I checked it out, it looks like they made their own algorithm.
Well, I'll figure this out.

You'll have to use the functions they wrote in order to insert passwords or to check whether they are correct.

Hi Orc!

I want to make exactly the same thing as you, to authenticate users from phpbb user tables. Did you figure it out somehow?

Thanks in advance
