Line 9: Current method to provide password for vdsClient commands is typing it Line 10: in the command line. The BZ1032525 requests to provide safer way. Line 11: Line 12: This patch implements file based way of providing passwords which is Line 13: encoded using base64 and stored in the first line of the file. Each Why base64? Why not just plain text? IMO base64 adds no advantages and just complicates use for the common case. We want to make this as comfortable as possible so that people will actually use it if they care even a bit about security. Line 14: command using passwords now can accept old way password or path to the Line 15: file with a password. Line 16: Line 17:
