> Provide documentation for the pluggable encryption system for passwords. This 
> feature has been available since [GERONIMO-2925] but never documented.
> <snip>
> If you want to have a fixed key generated by geronimo you can add this gbean 
> to the rmi-naming module in config.xml:
> <gbean 
> name="org.apache.geronimo.configs/rmi-naming/2.1-SNAPSHOT/car?name=ConfiguredEncryption,j2eeType=GBean"
>  gbeanInfo="org.apache.geronimo.system.util.ConfiguredEncryption">
> <attribute name="path">var/security/ConfiguredSecretKey.ser</attribute>
> <reference 
> name="ServerInfo"><pattern><name>ServerInfo</name></pattern></reference>
> </gbean>
> This will create a key the first time its started, after that it will keep 
> using the saved key at the location specified. If you put a serialized 
> SecretKeySpec there it will use it instead.
> Of course using something like this leaves your system open to the key file 
> changing or disappearing and losing all the saved password info.
