Description: ------------ The document of an Auth package is old. For example, it is writing to intro.xml as follows. >The password column must be at least 32 characters > long because we store passwords encrypted using md5() and that is > the length of the values returned by md5(). However, crypt form and a plaintext-password can also be used now. There is no explanation of a method required for attestation, such as getUsername(), otherwise. Please update by all!!

This bug has been fixed in CVS. In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net. In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show up on the website in short time. Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.
