  40       This isn't possible at the moment.  I'm hoping to make it possible
  41 for 5.1.  In the meantime, you can export to XML and encrypt the
  42 passwords manually.  Something like the following Perl snippet
  43 (pseudocode) should do it:
  44
  45         undef $/;
  46         $data = &lt;XML&gt;;
  47         s,&lt;pass&gt;([\0-\377]*?)&lt;/pass&gt;,&quot;&lt;pass&gt;&quot;.&amp;escape(&amp;md5($1)).&quot;&lt;/pass&gt;&quot;,eg;
  48         print NEWXML $data;
  49
  50 where &amp;md5 is a subroutine that returns the MD5 hash of its parameter
  51 (raw binary, not hex string), and &amp;escape turns non-ASCII characters
  52 into &amp;#nnn; entities.

  58 &gt;<i> Hello all,
  59 </I>&gt;<i> I have a simple question that I can't seem to find the answer to. How
  60 </I>&gt;<i> can I convert the my services database to use MD5? Just enabling
  61 </I>&gt;<i> encryption/md 5 breaks it. :/
