Hello,
is there any way of using reversibly encrypted passwords together with a mySQL
backend? Currently, our passwords are stored as User-Password in clear text.
I'd like to move on to using something like
Crypt-Password := {algo-prefix}blablabla
with an algorithm that encrypts reversibly. I
I'd also like to do this - although non-reversable encryption (like
MD5) would suit us - eg, password is encrypted in the table, and is
encrypted and compared when a user's password is checked.
How is encryption meant to be done in the MySQL module at all?

Not really, no. But it shouldn't be too hard to add...

This is already supported in 1.1.x, and is a little easier in
