Encrypted passwords

If your Sybase database is configured to require encrypted passwords, additional configuration of the CDC Replication Engine for Sybase databases is required.

CDC Replication supports password encryption for Sybase Adaptive Server Enterprise that uses SAP proprietary encryption algorithms. Any other algorithm (such as RSA) is not supported by the current JDBC driver.

You can configure encryption support when you add a new instance or edit an existing one:

Windows

When you add an instance, specify encryptPassword for the AuthenticationMethod parameter (Instance Configuration > Database > Advanced).

Linux and UNIX

When you add an instance, specify AuthenticationMethod=encryptPassword for advanced parameters.
