How to encrypt Passwords?

[Peter Moreton]

I have a working Freeradius server with user information held in "/etc/raddb/users" in the form

username Cleartext-Password = "ABCD"

We have to store the passwords in some hashed or encrypted format and I'm posting the the list to ask how this is done. Can the 'users'  file support ciphertext passwords? Or do we have to store our users in some SQL database?

Thanks,

Peter
