Hi,

First, yes this is implemented.
Second, the SecretKey is actually generated per user when he is using the
Artifactory Web UI. I mean that the password is used to authenticate the
user against LDAP, then when going to the user profile page the user can
"Unlock" his password using it's personal private key with the same
password. Artifactory never store the LDAP password, just the pair
private/public key used to decrypt the grabbled text used by the user in the
settings.xml and encrypt is clear text password in the UI.

Is that clear? :)

HTH,
Fred.
