subject: novell encryption

I have written a program small program that is to be used on a novell
network, it does require the user to enter their username and password
correctly according to the bindary file before being able to get into the
program shell. My problem is that the network has encrypted passowrds = on
and when the user enters their passwords I get a message saying "illegal call
attempting to send an unencrypted passowrd" I know you can type
set allow unencrypted passwords=on to not encrypt the password before
sending it to the server, but the admin preferrs that all calls are
encrypted. Is there any way in pascal code that I can encrypt the password
in my program.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
