  34 <PRE>Hi,
  35
  36 Link your services using 127.0.0.1; no packet is sent to the network, no
  37 additional CPU time will be required to encrypt/decrypt via ssl.
  38
  39 Fast. Efficient.

  47 </I>&gt;<i> On our network we're currently taking a look on how we can make things more

  49 </I>&gt;<i> IRCServices.
  50 </I>&gt;<i>
  51 </I>&gt;<i> One of the things we did is link all of our servers through SSL, and gave

  53 </I>&gt;<i> net that isn't connected through SSL is Services.
  54 </I>&gt;<i> Are there any plans to add this to IRCServices? I didn't see anything about
  55 </I>&gt;<i> it in the TODO.
  56 </I>&gt;<i>
  57 </I>&gt;<i> The second idea is about the encrypted passwords. As stated in the
  58 </I>&gt;<i> IRCServices documentation SENDPASS and GETPASS won't work with encryption
  59 </I>&gt;<i> enabled because of the way md5 works.
  60 </I>&gt;<i> This introduces the problem that users will have to contact an Oper in case
  61 </I>&gt;<i> they lose their password.
  62 </I>&gt;<i> Would it be possible to, when encryption is enabled, change the behaviour of
  63 </I>&gt;<i> SENDPASS so that it won't send the user's password (because this is not
  64 </I>&gt;<i> possible), but generate a new random password for the user and send that to
  65 </I>&gt;<i> the user's e-mail address instead?
  66 </I>&gt;<i>
