Thank you for your reply.
I am new to cocoon. I searched the cocoon document and wiki, but I didn't
find some component which could do this kind of encoding. I also searched
the Tomcat docs, it seems that tomcat could only digest its password in
three kinds of format.
So would you please tell me which component I can use to encode the
password?
Or should I make a component myself and plug in?

thank you
