Is it possible to have the password encrypted somehow in the vpnc.conf file?

I just got an e-mail from vpnc creator stating that it wasn't possible... just so you know.

Thanks! I was wondering. Guess i'll have to wrap it in an insecure bash script and pass in the password!

You could change rights of the file at least, to make only readable to the owner.
