No, Coda still uses XOR encoding to `secure' the rpc2 communication.
Ofcourse XOR is totally inadequate for this because we don't have a
magical one-time pad ;), so we do not share the unix passwords with the
Coda passwords.
The administrator password should be "changeme" on any freshly
initialized system. You can use `cpasswd' or `au cp' to change it into
something different.
