[jboss-as7-dev] Securing Attributes including passwords

[Anil Saldhana]

The location of the vault file is an option.
========
  ENC_FILE_DIR: the location where the encoded files will be kept. End 
with "/" or "\" based on your platform
========

The config for the vault is a one type operation at the jvm level. So I 
put it in the security subsystem.  I will put it under host and standalone.

(05:47:22 PM) bstansberry: asaldhan: yes. i'm suggesting that element 
become part of the core config, as a child of <host> or <standalone>. It 
should appear in the schema prior to any other element that needs data 
from the vault.
=============
