[JDEV] small mod to jabber's source

Hey guys

   Here's my problem. I am running  jabber server 1.4.1 with the xdb_sql backend. I modified this a little so that it would use a users table I already had in another database. Now, I'm storing users passwords encrypted, so I have to give out the users encrypted passwords for them to be able to log into the server. 

    What I plan to do is insert some code that will allow my users to log in using plain text passwords. To do this, I have to find exactly where jabber is storing the password after the user's client passes it to the server. I then need to make sure jabber encrypts the password before it compares it to the one pulled from the database. I have the code I need to encrypt the password, I just don't know where it is being stored. That's where one of you guys comes in. Does anyone happen to know the best place to insert this code?

Thanks in advance
