ENCRYPTION_SEED

This variable holds a text string that is used to initialize the encryption module. The string can be any length. ENCRYPTION_SEED should be set in both the runtime configuration file (on the client) and in the server configuration file.

Note that the use of encryption can have a significant impact on performance. See section 6.6, "Encryption," for complete information on AcuServer encryption and use.
