Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-4483:
--------------------------------------
Issue & fix info: (was: [Patch Available])
Fix Version/s: 10.6.0.0
Thanks Rick! I've committed the patch with revision 922304.
I plan to post a follow up patch which adds more details to the comments about
strong password substitution. The current comments state that it can be used
with BUILTIN authentication, but now that's only partially true.
> Provide a way to change the hash algorithm used by BUILTIN authentication

> The BUILTIN authentication scheme protects the passwords by hashing them with
> the SHA-1 algorithm. It would be nice to have way to specify a different
> algorithm so that users can take advantage of new, stronger algorithms
> provided by their JCE provider if so desired.
