Knut Anders Hatlen updated DERBY-5693:
--------------------------------------
Attachment: d5693-1a.diff
Attaching a patch that changes "encrypt" to "hash" in the code comments in
AuthenticationServiceBase and BasicAuthenticationServiceImpl. It also renames
three methods in those classes to make it clearer that they don't encrypt the
passwords, but rather hash them.
> BUILTIN should say passwords are hashed not encrypted
