When you use the rs_init program to install or upgrade the replication system, you can enable password encryption. This allows rs_init to encrypt passwords throughout sensitive areas of the replication system. After the replication system is installed or upgraded, you can use rs_init at any time to enable encryption.
If encryption is enabled for a Replication Server, rs_init encrypts new passwords, passwords contained in the Replication Server configuration file, and passwords stored in the RSSD. If encryption is enabled for an LTM, rs_init encrypts new passwords and passwords contained in the LTM configuration file.
For details on enabling password encryption using the rs_init program, see the Replication Server Installation Guide.
