Encrypt a password

The fglpass tool can encrypt a password using an RSA key or certificate, and then encode it in BASE64 form. This allows you to easily add a protected password in the FGLPROFILE file for future use by any 4GL application.

1. To encrypt a password from an RSA key and encoded in BASE64, enter:

   fglpass -e -k RSAPub.pem

2. You are prompted to enter the password you want to encrypt.

   Enter password :hello

   The fglpass tool outputs the BASE64 form of the encrypted password on the console.

   BASE64 BEGIN
   Pzk/fNRhetdJDZz5kjNg7P0XET4XsW6bys/fi0DvugxRPh9d/s41oAws65
   JY0EPb2zytQjxZ/dwaaRzJPYoQmA==
   BASE64 END

   Note: The BASE64 encrypted password is the string between the BASE64 BEGIN and BASE64 END.
