Does that mean the password is saved in cleartext? Is the file protected in some way besides filesystem permissions? As mentioned in wiki page, the password is stored in base64 format. Which means it's stored in cleartext. That is Not Good(tm) :) Can Keyring be used to store a token instead? That would A) be better than password and B) avoid a Keystone hit. Don't tokens expire? Yes, they do, but that is no reason not to put them in the keyring, With the PKI tokens, you will be able to query a token's expiry without going across the wire. Adam, can you please file a ticket to use keyring to store tokens for keystone? I'll work on it. -- Regards, Bhuvaneswaran A www.livecipher.com<http://www.livecipher.com>
