More information would help. What kind of encryption do you need? What server software are we talking about?

BasicPasswordEncryptor passwordEncryptor = new BasicPasswordEncryptor();
String encryptedPassword = passwordEncryptor.encryptPassword(userPassword);
by using the jaspyt [java jar file for encryption] do it & store in the file.

If that's what you're talking about, then you already asked this question here: http://forums.winamp.com/showthread.php?t=340816

Please do not ask the same question twice.

I assume you are talking about http://www.jasypt.org/api/jasypt/1.8...Encryptor.html but that page says it is a salted MD5 hash and you are talking about encryption. You already asked this question in another thread and it is pretty rude to ask it again without providing us any new information. You can either find a external tool that you can execute or figure out exactly what kind of cryptographic operation you need to perform (if it is encryption we at least need to know the cipher before we can help)
