Thanks for your answer.
We going to search other way to store our passwords.
What we do is have a file readable only by root stored in a particular
place, known to the sysadmins, our boss and our boss's boss (the
latter two not using it, but knowing that this is the "everyone hit by
a bus" document). The file in question is referred to on the wiki as
"password in the usual place." A suitable combination of actual
security and a bit of obscurity ;-) The threat model is not a
malicious intruder, but a well-meaning co-worker - the latter is ten
times as damaging.
