We recently separated pintoken from voicemail pin
pintoken now stands for user portal password and instant messaging
password, and OpenAcd password (the same password for all three)
pintoken is now saved in plain text format in both postgres and imdb
because we wanted to unify user password with instant messaging password
and open acd password, and therefore we couldn't keep a one-way hash
mechanism (openfire uses a two-way hash and keeps password key in plain
text, and we used to save IM password in plain text anyway)

Still the voicemail pin is kept in a one-way hash of username:password
(see Md5Encoder.java)
The plan is to find a way to use a one-way hash mechanism that does not
include the realm for user portal, IM, open acd in 4.8 release.

Another reason for this change was that, for example in previous sipxecs
releases we used a one-way hash of username:realm:password, and most users
had realm the same as domain name. Changing the domain name would result in
a user login failure

I am not sure if OpenAcd code was aligned with this password strategy change

Hope this helps
