Re: Re: SAP R/3 password encryption ?

[declan () chello nl]

A user with the profile SAP_ALL is the same as having root in unix in the first place.

However - there is an assigned development request with SAP at the moment to create a new authorisation object so that 
change documents (which are currently based on S_USER_GRP) for passwords will have a new authorisation object.  It 
should produce another level of granularity so password hashs won't be output by looking at the change documents for a 
user.
