> If passwords have been encrypted, deploy fails to notice if the password decryption failed.
> Furthermore, it carries on trying to login even after a login failure.
> This is true even if the decryption succeeded but the password was incorrect or no encryption was used and the password is incorrect.
> This is bad as it can result in lockout due to the multiple failed logins - deploy needs to login several times - and may cause unnecessary work for system admins.
