SymmetricDS Community Edition passwords hard-coding in property files

Question

We have setup SymmetricDS on Windows for SQL server databases and it's working fine. But we have hard-coded the passwords in property files. My question here is, is there any way to avoid hard-coding?

Answer 1

You can encrypt your passwords.

Answer 2

If you set SQL-Server to use Windows authentication for the SymmetricDS user, then you can leave the db.user and db.password properties empty.
