Cc-Computer-Side Hashing

So, I'm trying to make a Lua/PHP amalgamation that allows for off-server computer manipulation. Specifically, allowing users to change variables via web browser that affects computers in-game.

…mainly so I could manage an IC2 Breeder Reactor without logging in (just whether it's working or not).

Anyway, I'm just wondering if there's anything ComputerCraft-Computer-Side that allows for hashing, so that per-user passwords can be hashed before they're shipped off-server. If not, I'm also game for something that'd be shunted into the rom/apis folder.

As for algorithm, I don't particularly care, so long as they can hash relatively instantaneously. If it takes more than an MC tick, I don't think I'd want it.

Any idea where I could find such a function and/or API?

(As a small side note, I also manage the server this is for - I have the ability to work from an FTP POV.)

You should use the forum's search feature more often. It is very useful. GravityScore's SHA256 Hashing Algorithm.

Then in PHP side when validating you just do hash("sha256", $input_password); where $input_password is the password they entered into the web form.

…well. I suppose I just wasn't searching for the right things.; Searched "password hashing" and just gave up after that. Thanks much.
