I have not tried this myself, but I see that the hash() function in Cfengine should support crypt. See http://www.cfengine.org/manuals/cf3-reference.html#Function-hash This way you get rid of the external commands, but you end up with password in the clear. But note that in the end you would always have to rely on some physical security (where to store the key you encrypt the password with? if encrypt it again - what about that second key?). _______________________________________________ Help-cfengine mailing list Help-cfengine@cfengine.org https://cfengine.org/mailman/listinfo/help-cfengine
