what's exactly your needs (restore plain p/w or not?)
I don't use this but I guess what it does is calculating a hash
that is repeatable; so once you've stored th hash, you can input a p/w from
user, hash it and compare hashes (to hashes :) to see if they match.
This has the big advantage that in case of breaking in, nobody can
trace back to the plain login.
