MPE does support one-way encrypted passwords if you buy the Security
Monitor/iX add-on from HP I believe.  Security/3000 also stores passwords
one-way encrypted (IIRC).  Whether either of them uses *strong* one-way
encryption I don't know, but I certainly wouldn't be handing out the
encrypted values to anyone who wanted them.
