Import Customer Passwords

I have a separate database of users that I would like to import into Magento so that those users can log in with the same email/password. However, I noticed that the import will only accept encrypted/hashed passwords. How do I go about importing our current passwords? What type of hashing does Magento use.

Thanks in advance for any help!

Katie

i would like to know how to do this as well.

and as an lesser alternative, is there an option to leave these blank and send a BULK password reset?
i dont fancy sending 1000 odd individual password reset emails :|

Hi
You can use setPasswordHash() like this: (where $row is an array of your data to be imported)

$customerEntityType = Mage::getModel('eav/entity')->setType('customer')->getTypeId();
$website = Mage::getModel('core/website')->load( 'base', 'code');
$websiteID = $website->getId();
$customer = Mage::getModel( 'customer/customer' );
$customer->setWebsiteId   ( $websiteID );
$customer->setWebsiteCode ( 'base' );
$customer->setGroup       ( 'General' );
$customer->setEmail       ( $row['EmailAddress'] );
$customer->setFirstname   ( $row['FirstName'] );
$customer->setLastname    ( $row['FamilyName'] );
$customer->setPasswordHash( $row['LoginPassword'] ); // the md5 encrypted password
$customer->setIsSubscribed( $row['WantsNewsletter'] > 0 ? 1 : 0 );
$customer->save();

hope this helps
