        Subject:        Help !! Password Encryption/decryption ??

Hello everybody ,

I am on 8.1.6/NT .

i need to encrypt / decrypt the password of my users for my web based application.
I went thro' DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT.DESEncrypt and DBMS_OBFUSCATION_TOOLKIT.DESDecrypt methods . but as per the docs , this package requires the password ( which is to be encrypted ) to be
in multiples of 8 bytes . i don't think this is possible always .

have i understood anything wrong ? can anyone throw some light on this .

how do u guys encounter this situation ? any likely scripts plz ?!!!

TIA.
Jp.
