Password Hashing with UsernamePasswordLoginModule

erb2000 Jan 21, 2005 3:51 PM

I have UsernamePasswordLoginModule working fine without password hashing. I added the following two lines application-policy for jmx-console in the login-config.xml:

<module-option name="hashAlgorithm">MDS</module-options>
<module-option name="hashEncoding">base64</module-option>

I changed the password from clear text to the Base64Encoder value and it does not validate.

What am I missing?

There are two mistakes in the posted code. It says "MDS" instead of "MD5", and "/module-options" instead of "/module-option".
