What you are looking for is: service password-encryption. It is simple encryption (compared to the md5 hash of the enable secret). Its only real use is not showing a clear text password on a show run/start.

Please help [7:47847] Hi all! Hmm... Im quite new to this all and was wondering if some of you might want to help me with a little problem of mine :-) ? Today someone told me that one could encrypt the "privileged mode password", that is NOT the "secret password" wich is encrypted by default as ive gatherd (?). The way I usually do it in the cli is: enable password something (not encrypted, is there a way to do this?) enable secret something else (encrypted by default) If someone here knows these answers, please help me out :) Ive searched Wendel Odoms last 640-607, the w3, rotergod etc etc etc and cant find anything on the subject :-( Please help me out.
