Hop Encrypt
Hop Encrypt is a command line tool to encrypt (obfuscate) passwords for use in XML, password or Hop metadata files.
Usage
hop-encrypt usage:
encr <-hop|-server> <password>
Options:
-hop: generate an obfuscated or encrypted password
-server : generate an obfuscated password to include in the hop-server password file 'pwd/hop.pwd'
This command line tool obfuscates or encrypts a plain text password for use in XML, password or metadata files.
Make sure to also copy the password encryption prefix to indicate the obfuscated nature of the password.
Hop will then be able to make the distinction between regular plain text passwords and obfuscated ones.
