Reversibly encrypted passwords in SQL



Hello,

is there any way of using reversibly encrypted passwords together with a mySQL 
backend? Currently, our passwords are stored as User-Password in clear text. 
I'd like to move on to using something like

Crypt-Password := {algo-prefix}blablabla

with an algorithm that encrypts reversibly. I failed to see a list of 
supported algorithms in the docs, a pointer would be nice...

Greetings,

Stefan Winter
