I want to create a web user in the database…the app will use its credentials to connect to the database.
The database has already a root user with all the privileges…
My problem has to do with the password when attempting to create the web user…in contrast with root’s password… the password I create for the web user enters the users table non-hashed.
It is exposed in other words…how can I fix it?.
I expected that upon creating the password some internal mechanism would the hashing…
How are you creating the user? In what app? Are you using a CMS or framework? Give us more information to try and help you out 
This is more or less a PHP answer.
Best practice nowadays is to salt your passwords and don’t even send them in plain text to the server.
This is a google cache, seems the orig domain no longer exists.
Using this approach, 5 users can have the same password but they will all be different in the database.
I use this, just rewritten for PDO
