One reason not to use encryption for other-than-testing purposes is the chance that, prior to release, the encryption format may change. This, in fact, happened just this week. This means that you're either in the situation of losing your backed up data or badgering the developers to include a workaround in the code (extra work for them). Either way, not a place I'd like to be. Seems like the BETA releases are coming along pretty well though, so it might not be all that long... - -- ---- _ _ _ _ ___ _ _ _ |Y#| | | |\/| | \ |\ | | |Ryan Novosielski - Systems Programmer III |$&| |__| | | |__/ | \| _| |[EMAIL PROTECTED] - 973/972.0922 (2-0922) \__/ Univ. of Med. and Dent.|IST/AST - NJMS Medical Science Bldg - C630 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.5 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFVJ4qmb+gadEcsb4RAk9lAJ9Tj423T4AXb7KwPeUBBaxlBJIKqwCfR9hu Zlpbk7qyKp9v57J2BjaoZPI= =hQp7 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
