LeasePak Utilities

101 Encrypt Username and Password used to Access mPower

This utility enables the username and password for mPower to be encrypted, including an encryption utility and a process for using encrypted usernames and passwords when needed. The utility accepts a username and password, encrypts them using the same algorithm as Utility 110, and writes them to a file named mpcipher.dat located in the same directory as where the utility ran from.

From the LeasePak Utilities main menu, enter '101':

This utility option encrypts a username and password used for mPower. The encrypted data is then written to a file named mpcipher.dat in the current directory. To use the encrypted 
data, manually move the mpcipher.dat file to the WEB-INF / env directory of the mPower web server.
Do you wish to continue (Y/N)?

Enter 'Y' or 'y' to proceed. The program will display:

mPower username:  client string username
mPower password:  mPower password
confirm password: re-enter password to confirm password

Enter the correct mPower username and mPower client string password and, re-enter that password. When entering the password, the characters will not display on the screen. If the two passwords do not match, than the program will display:

Passwords did not match. Enter password again.
mPower password:
confirm password:

The utility will perform the mPower username and password encryption process and will exit.

Output File:

The file mpcipher.dat will be generated in the directory the utility was run from. Copy the mpcipher.dat file from the LeasePak server to the mPower server in the same directory env where the leasepak.xml file resides. Stop and then restart the mPower server.
