• Hello,

  Try MD5SUM like that in a terminal echo -n “myverysecretpassword” | md5sum It will return you something like that 22ea6cf875d66b15d275684427275dfdf witch is your password in an MD5 format.

  Hope this help Oliver

• Thanks Oliver, I am using this: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+sip+md5secret

  however, I wanted to know if there is a way to use some sort of Certificates. http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+encryption

  has anybody used this feature?

  Thanks,

• If you’re talking about SIP connections, I’m pretty sure it already uses a digest authentication mechanism, which allows the server to verify the password without having it sent in plain text. In other words, it’s already encrypted.
