Enter the user name and the password for database access in the [ODBC] section of the Automation Engine and of the Utilities INI files. For safety reasons, the password should always be encoded. This is what the program UCYBCRYP.EXE is for.
The UCYBCRYP.EXE file is stored in the IMAGE:TOOLS\ENCRYPT directory. Use the following parameters to enter the program via the command line:
UCYBCRYP[.EXE]
-p -n Password
Note: The password length is limited to 32 characters.
The PASSWORD.UCC file, which contains the encoded password, is created in the same directory. The encoded password can now be copied to the INI file.
UCYBCRYP.EXE requires the C++ 2010 Redistributable Package.
Example
ucybcryp -p -n uc4
Important! An encrypted password starts with two leading hyphens. Two exclamation marks are shown instead of hyphens if the file content of PASSWORD.UCC under Windows is output with the command TYPE. Thus, always copy the password from the file.
