Send password over TCP connection

[dcrespo]

¡Beautiful and elegant solution!

Two copies of the password: one on the client, the other on the server.

1. Client wants to connect
2. Server generates a random_alphanumeric_string and sends it to the
client
3. Both Client and Server creates a hash string from
<password+random_alphanumeric_string>
4. Client sends the hash string to the server
5. Server compares his hash result with the hash string received from
de client.

I think it is a very good solution, Isn't it?
