[Phpwm] encryption

[Alex Mace]

It's been a while, but I wrote a PHP app and a .Net app that accessed  
the same database and stored the password in an AES encrypted string.  
Can't remember how I did it in .Net, but I used the mcrypt library in  
PHP and they both decoded the same string fine. If you're having  
problems with decoding something in PHP encoded in .Net or vice-versa  
then I'd check things like character sets to make sure your putting  
the data in and out in the same format...

That's about as far as I can go on that :)
