That's not the case. Previously encrypted passwords will stay encrypted,
but new passwords configured will not be encrypted. Shown in the following
captured file.. :-)
In the capture file, you'll see the telnet password in clear text, then I do
a service password-encryption command, and the telnet password is encrypted.
I do "no service password-encryption" and then configure a con 0 password
note that the con 0 password is not encrypted, but the telnet is still
encrypted
