Re: Secure & Open Encrypted String Storage

I guess I wasn't clear but I don't control the server. I am writing
the client side portion so I must, at some point in execution, have an
unencrypted use password in memory to access the server. In addition
each user's password is unique (for all I know).

Basically, I have the same needs as an email client that stores a
user's password to a pop server. Is this even possible. I can't seem
to come up with a strategy where by I don't either hard code a key
which I use to encrypt/decrypt the users password or store that key in
plain text somewhere. I was actually hoping java provide some
mechanism for secure key storage.
