Thanks Jan for your feedback.

I may confirm that serctl is generating the follow values:
i) Plain text in the "password" column.

ii) Enrcrypted text in the "ha1" column.

iii) Encrypted text in the "ha1b" column.

However, I refer back to my original objective, namely that while I still require users to be authenticated against user credentials (username, password, realm), on the other hand I want to avoid storing passwords in clear text in mysql "subscriber" table, when creating new user accounts using the serctl add command.

Thanks

Karl

Make sure that you have proper values in ha1 column (generated
automatically by serctl, if not then you can use gen_ha1 utility to
generate the hashes from plaintext password) and set:

modparam("auth_db", "calculate_ha1", no)
modparam("auth_db", "password_column", ha1)
