Hi all,

I'm using tg 1.5 with sqlite and sqlobject which is also the identity
provider and it turns out the password field of the User class is
stored in cleartext. In model.py I see that _set_password overwrites
the default and passes the cleartext password through
identity.encrypt_password but nevertheless the cleartext stuff gets
written to the db.

In turbogears/identity/base.py I tried checking what is actually
happening but it's way too complicated. Perhaps I should be using
encrypt_pw_with_algorithm instead in _set_password of User? At least
this is what is recommended by some of the comments. But then the
identity framework will need to be modified somewhere so that when a
password comparison is made the same function is called.

In any case what's the preferred way to proceed?

Cheers,
Daniel
