Encrypted Authentication for Replication

Sybase Control Center uses encrypted passwords to connect to a Replication Server, an Adaptive Server, an Adaptive Server that hosts a Replication Server System Database (RSSD), and a SQL Anywhere that hosts an embedded RSSD that are configured for network password encryption.

If the Replication Server, Adaptive Server, RSSD, or embedded RSSD is configured to require login encryption, Sybase Control Center establishes a connection using a password that is encrypted during network transmission.

Note: Password encryption is not supported in the Replication Agent for systems administrator password, and in a non-Sybase data server that retrieves latency and rs_ticket performance data.

For information on setting up encrypted password on Replication Server and Adaptive Server, see Replication Server Configuration Guide > Password Encryption and Adaptive Server System Administration Guide: Volume 1 > Setting Configuration Parameters.
