<h2>Using digested passwords</h2>
<p>To use digested password you need to store them digested.
-To achieve this, you will need to use the same digest strategies that JDBCrealm
uses to store the passwords, inside JDBCRealm there is a static method with signature
<code>final public static String Digest(String password,String algorithm)</code> this
method is provided as a tool to be used outside JDBCRealm by an application that want
to store passwords readable by JDBCRealm.</p>
+To achieve this, you will need to use the same digest strategies that JDBCrealm
uses to store the passwords, either by using:<br>
+<ul>
+ <li>The static method inside JDBCRealm. <code>final public static String
Digest(String password,String algorithm)</code></li>
+ <li>Use the scripts in the bin directory, <code>digest.bat</code> for Windows
or <code>digest.sh</code> for unix/linux systems</li>
+</ul>
+</p>
<h2>Hints</h2>
<p>
- Make sure that the JDBC driver is in the lib directory.
<br>
- If you have problem connecting you can specify connectionName and
connectionPassword</p>
