Martin,
Interestingly your blog mentions Perl cryptography,
which is what the PDBA::PWD module uses.
PDBA::PWD implements a password server daemon
that can be called from within scripts.
I can understand the need for a quick solution though.
When the Oracle Password Store was available I thought
that was pretty cool. The problem for me however was that
it was only useful with Oracle.
There's often a need for other types of passwords as well.
