Hey All,

Can anyone tell me if usernames and passwords are sent in clear text while
connecting to postgres via JDBC?

I have set the AUTHTYPE in my pg_hba.conf file to use crypt. Does this mean
that passwords sent via JDBC is encrypted? And if so, what type of
encryption is postgres using?

Thanks for any help.

Peter
