Database password encryption in cocoon.xconf

[Kirula Leelasena <ki...@db.com>]

Hi,
Is there anyway to enable password encryption in cocoon's database connections (ref cocoon.xconf) ?

<datasources>
    <jdbc name="my_db">
          <pool-controller min="5" max="10" oradb="true"/>
          <dburl>jdbc:oracle:thin:@my_server:my_port:my_SID</dburl>
          <user>username</user>
          <password>my_encrypted_password</password>
    </jdbc>
</datasources>

Please advise if a password encryption tool can be used to encrypt database passwords and getting cocoon to use this tool to do the reverse when connecting to a database. I know this is a long shot, but I thought I will ask anyway!

Reason for this query is that our internal security policy do not to allow storing of passwords without them being encrypted first.

Thanks and Regards
Kirula
