Omniscient Monks,

iīm wondering about the following issue:
..
use Digest::MD5 qw(md5 md5_hex md5_base64);
..
# md5 salt
my $salt = "any_salt";

#constructor
sub new {
    my ($class) = @_;
    my $self = $class->SUPER::new();
    $self->{_NAME}     = $_[1];
    $self->{_PASSWORD} = $_[2];
    bless $self, $class and return $self;
}

sub ENCRYPT {
    return "[" . md5_base64( md5_hex( md5( "[" . $salt . $_[0] ) ) ) .
+ "]";
}

...

IMHO this argument should be true
$user->ENCRYPT("test") eq User::ENCRYPT("test")

[download]
but it isnīt!
User::ENCRYPT = [pFEzt3UedzYAtjFwAGLDRQ]
$User->ENCRYPT = [TmLr4v17FTUVqcO+Gb2K/Q]

[download]
each time i execute it, $User->ENCRYPT returns another hash... so what happens?!

kindly perlig

$perlig =~ s/pec/cep/g if 'errors expected';
