> The documentation states that the StarTeam plugin is based on the command-line interface.  If this is true, the newest command-line interface now supports encrypted (i.e. obfuscated) external password files, which is a preferred way to operate, so that developers do not store clear text passwords in their build scripts or properties files, allowing these files to be safely stored in source control without compromising security.
