This is an interesting topic of interest. We would like to do a similar thing with our DB passwords that are in our POMs. Are there any other options other than the ones described?

Thank you for the suggestions, everyone. Based on them, I have done/will do this. 1) For now, I moved the three properties out of the POM files and into the settings.xml file. That at least keeps all the information in one file, should I wish to change it. 2) I will talk to our developers about using the maven-remote-resources-plugin as a better way to handle these resources. This would eliminate the need for those three properties. 3) I will look into encrypting the passwords in settings.xml. Thank you for all your help. :) -ste -----Original Message----- From: Evgeny Goldin [mailto:evge...@gmail.com] Artifactory passwords stored in "settings.xml" can be further secured by switching to encrypted passwords: http://wiki.jfrog.org/confluence/display/RTF/Centrally+Secure+Passwords [snip] ________________________________ Subject to local law, communications with Accenture and its affiliates including telephone calls and emails (including content), may be monitored by our systems for the purposes of security and the assessment of internal compliance with Accenture policy. ______________________________________________________________________________________ www.accenture.com ---------------------------------------------- T ususcib, -mil uer-usus...@mve.aace.rg Fr ddtina cmmnd, -mil uer-hlpmaenapch.og --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@maven.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@maven.apache.org
