We have implemented this and just like to say its working well for us. Would recommend to others for added security due to the one-way encryption.
DB field: set to varchar(255) - this should help others.
Other general users report it to be 123 chars, but on on some of the PHP documentation is states:
"255 characters would be a good choice" - I second that.
PHP developers: GOOD job btw!
Introducere
The password hashing API provides an easy to use wrapper around crypt() and some other password hashing algorithms, to make it easy to create and manage passwords in a secure manner.
This extension is available since PHP 5.5.0 but there is also an » userland implementation for PHP >= 5.3.7.
