Perl crypt()

[Mark Ingram]

Hi,

Ive just been making a quick C# application to insert basic data into the
Bugzilla database, but it seems i cant check the login of a user because
Bugzilla uses the crypt() function to encrypt the passwords.

Is there any documentation other than
http://www.perldoc.com/perl5.8.0/pod/func/crypt.html which would allow me to
re-create the crypt function so i can check logins correctly?

I know this sounds like a strange thing todo, but its because we have a text
file here (pre-bugzilla) containing old bugs and fixes that need to be put
into the database. But it would take so long to copy and paste this file
line by line so i am writing a parser to directly put the details into the
database.

Thanks
