34 The settings password is used for certain settings which need to
35 be stored in encrypted form for security reasons. At the moment,
36 the only encrypted setting is the iSCSI initiator secret, see
37 <xref href="man_VBoxManage-storageattach.dita"/>. As long as no
38 settings password is specified, this information is stored in
39 <i>plain text</i>. After using the
40 <!--option not processed within -->--settingspw|--settingspwfile option once, it
41 must be always used. Otherwise, the encrypted setting cannot be
42 unencrypted.
