Encrypted Password

[harini19]

I'm using Java at Front end and SQL 2000 at the backend. I need to capture the Password entered in a Text Field and encrypt it and store it in a database. How do I do that?

String password = JTextField.getText();
Encrypt with MD5. Either search for java and md5 hashing, or you could encrypt it when you insert the password into the sql database as sql has an md5 function.
