Encrypting a Password

You can encrypt a password to be entered in the Extract.pwxXmapPwd or Extract.pwxNodePwd property in the cdcPublisherPowerExchange.cfg configuration text file to protect the password from unauthorized viewing. Use the PwxCDCAdmin utility with the ENCRYPT parameter.

Do not use this method to encrypt a password that will be entered in the Extract.pwxNodeEPwd property. This property value must be encrypted with the PowerExchange Navigator Encrypt Password facility.

At the command prompt, enter the PwxCDCAdmin command with the ENCRYPT parameter.

Use the following syntax:

PwxCDCAdmin ENCRYPT=password_value

You can issue the command from the

pwxcdcpub_root_installation\bin

subdirectory or from another location if you specified the PWXPUB_HOME environment variable.

The PwxCDCAdmin utility generates and displays an encrypted password in the format

ENC:encrypted_value

, where "ENC:" is the prefix that the CDC Publisher uses to identify an encrypted password value.
