Hi Kenneth,

You must look at the source code of DHIS2 and Spring in order to understand
it. It is not a simple hash, but a salted hash depending on the username
and password together. This has been previously discussed on this list, but
it is most clear by analyzing the source code.

Best regards,
Jason
