I must admit I'm a bit dubious about security on a freevo box, I guess
it all comes down to how people use freevo.

If your unhappy with the current method you can always use stunnel and
certificates, this would prevent plain text password going over the
network.

A better solution for the password is to keep the same method as we have
but replace the 'freevo' password with: { 'freevo' : ('md5',
'c30e34fbaa8de764a6376eb1b10a7307') },
{ 'freevo' : ('crypt', ('bba2MX1hDX8JQ', 'bb')) } or
{ 'freevo' : 'freevo' }

(New in python 2.5 is hashlib, better hashes)

This would minimise the changes and still keep it easy for people who
don't need secure passwords. I don't see much difference between using
local_conf.py and a separate file for passwords. You don't have to have
local_conf.py as world readable.

If you want to do a patch for this, then I would be more than happy to
apply it.
