Maybe it could be a key/pass combination.
Once the password is entered. It is kept in mememory
throughout the entire jBoss process.

But if you encrypt the password on disk, you need a key to decrypt it
with. Unless you make a sysadmin keep a floppy in a vault with this key
on it and only mount that floppy when JBoss is starting, then take it
out right away, you'll have to store the key on disk on the same machine
where the encrypted passwords are stored. This makes the encrypted
password clear-text equivalent.
