Why would you bother? If someone has access to that file, whether or not they need to decrypt it is the least of your concerns. They have root access to a box on your network, having your WPA key is pointless they are ON the network already. Also if the key was encrypted you would not want to hash it because then you could not use it. The box will need to be able to decrypt it WITHOUT need external input otherwise you would have to provide creditinals every time you wanted your Touch to get online. So the root user would have to be able to decrypt it, so guess what if a user can read that file they are root. Not really going to stop them from decrypting anything if they are root. So that encryption becomes a needless complication for no gain. -- m1abrams ------------------------------------------------------------------------ m1abrams's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=850 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=77491 _______________________________________________ Touch mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/touch
