How to use encrypted username password.

Hi,

   I’m trying to explore if there is any way to encrypt -basicauth or
encrypt username and password in -Dsolr.httpclient.config.

Thanks
Gangadhar

Typically you'll place the -Dsolr.httpclient.config file somewhere restricted so there should be no need to encrypt it.
IF you encrypted the user and pass in that file, where would you place the secret decryption key for Solr to decrypt them?

Typically basic auth is encrypted using SSL.
