Or do what I do: manipulate the database directly using SQL.  DigestUtil
runs standalone, so you can use it in a script to encode passwords.

Re: adding users to jdbc repository

[Kenny Smith <ja...@jakarta.apache.org>]

I certainly can't say that my solution is the best, but it works for me. 
I'm running a mod_perl app (I tried doing it in Java, but it just took 
too darn long) and I've written a couple of perl modules that 
encapsulate the creation/maintenance/deletion of POP accounts. I 
attached two Perl Modules to this message, they aren't usable out of the 
box for you, but maybe it can serve as an example.

For what Noel is talking about below, refer to the _encodePassword() 
subroutine in POP.pm.

P.S. BaseObject.pm is my database abstraction module and POP.pm extends 
from it so that I don't have to write DBI code over and over.
