wohali commented on issue #777: Adding admins through local.ini doesn't encrypt 
passwords after restart
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/777#issuecomment-324809949
 
 
   CouchDB always writes to the _last_ file in the config chain, which draws 
file in the following order:
   
   ```
   etc/default.ini
   etc/default.d/* (processed in alphanumeric order)
   etc/local.ini
   etc/local.d/* (same)
   ```
   
   What you are observing is the current behaviour, if you have an 
`etc/local.d/whatever.ini` file the encrypted password will be written there, 
not into `etc/local.ini`.
   
   Improving this functionality is useful, and something that's been on the 
verbal backlog for a while, but will require a near-complete rewrite of the 
current config system. (Read: this won't happen very soon, nor is it strictly 
speaking a bug.)
   
   I will retitle this issue and leave it open to track future work.
