What if I don want to put the database user password in cleartext?
OC4J 10.1.2 allows you to specify passwords used in its various configuration files in a secure manner through the use of password indirection. Password indirection allows you to specify the name of a user in a secure repository, from which OC4J will extract the password to use. This enables passwords to be maintained in a centralized location and allows the choice of using the local XML user store or the use of the Oracle Internet Directory. See J2EE Services Guide in the OC4J documentation set for more information.
OC4J 9.0.4 allows you to specify passwords used in its various configuration files in a secure manner through the use of password indirection.

This enables passwords to be maintained in a centralized location and allows the choice of using the local XML user store or the use of the Oracle Internet Directory.
