Active Sync new records with clear text password

Hi all,

I have some SQL tables that will be used from provision IDM. These tables store user records created by some external applications. The passwords in these records are stored in clear text.

Now, i alredy configured Active Sync on these resources to synchronize record changes (and new records) with IDM. The problem is that if i have new records on these resources i can only active sync them to IDM if the password is set to a constant value (or rule) in the metaview configuration (we are using IDM 7.0), although metaview gives the possibility to set the Identity Manager attribute password.password to a resource attribute.

I made something similar in metaview with the IDM attribute waveset.organization. This attribute sets the organization the user will belong to. In this case, the waveset.organization attribute is set by a value stored in the resource record. This configuration is working, i.e, depending on the value stored in the resource record the user will be created in one organization or another.

So, the problem is:

I have some authoritative resources from which new records need to be synchronized into IDM. The user records store the password in clear text. How can i sync these records along with the password stored on them into IDM ?

Anyone ever had this problem ?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Best Regards,

Rui Monteiro
