Plain text shared secrets problematic?

Hi, I'm fairly new to the topic but I got the assignment to find out if the fact that the shared secrets for user logins are in plain-text could be a problem security-wise. Isn't there a way do encrypt them or make the password encryption more secure? I've been researching for some hours now and fould several articles about RADIUS' vulnerabilities, but noone seems to be concerned about this subject. I hope you might be able to clear things up for me. Regards Mathias -- View this message in context: http://freeradius.1045715.n5.nabble.com/Plain-text-shared-secrets-problemati...
