Hi there all,

Does anyone out there know anything about the encryption algorithm used to encrypt the passwords in software issue 7.1?
I have looked at this myself and have found repeating patterns, embedded text and certain multiplying factors but haven't as yet discovered how the encryption works for an actual applicable key.
I feel that I need to explain that I am a retired telecomms. engineer who plays around with Siemens Realitis as a hobby (strange you may think!!)Any information on this topic is for personal knowledge use only (so I can get into my own exchange with higher level passwords) and not for personal gain or profit.
Any help at all with this would be greatly appreciated.
Best regards to all,
Telecoman.
