   Hello All!   
      
   I'd like to be able to open to the public my jamnntpd server. However, being   
   security minded, I can't in good conscience open my users to plain text   
   passwords being transferred across the network.   
      
   Before I run down the rabbit hole of hacking together at least a DIGEST-MD5 --   
   something that protects user passwords from going in the clear;  I wanted to   
   see if anyone else has started or in the midst of working on the same?   
      
   Thanks,   
   Scott
