decoding

Just curious about cpanel's security

Where are the user logins stored (actually passwords for user accounts, emails, etc)?

I've done this before but cannot remember how.
How does one decode a password in mysql databas?

Example:
1E3EFA0C4C437F0F5A507ECA543527FA06B34A43

How would I see the actual password? One person locked out of his admin
account on his forum and is practically screwed.

How is this a linux question? If you need cpanel-specific help, you should check with support groups that focus primarly on cpanel-related topics.

This forum is for linux questions, not encryption questions.

I did ask a mysql question, which is for linux and cpanel is for linux.

You could have replied more politely as well

From the MySQL homepage:

Quote:

MySQL runs on more than 20 platforms including Linux, Windows, OS/X, HP-UX, AIX, Netware, giving you the kind of flexibility that puts you in control.

MySQL is not linux-specific, and neither is cPanel. My previous statement is valid.
