hello and thanks for any info

i have a client that has a website with registered users.
the user pages appear as www.example.com/username/pge-name.htm (using mod_rewritte in htacccess)

now he wants to implement a blog to his members (www.example.com/username/blog/......

Are there any simpe blogs that support multiple users?
The passwords of the members are saved with md5(), so the blog script must have the same routine for its passwords, so as i can copy the existing passwords easily to the blog's user passwords.

I have tried wordpress, but i couldnt make it work with multiple users (of course i didnt "play" with it for very long).

Any help/tip is appreciated

Not the answer you might expect...
your users won't be very happy with such a system
Asking for a PW to use the blog, asking for a PW to use the rest of the site
In such a case you will be better of using only one authentication/login system that span all across the site.
Use the blog login system for the whole site or your existing for the blog.
I believe wordPress has a multi-users option
and if I am correct ergophobe (Mod) is a blog adaptation specialist.
