hi max,

not sure if this is a documentation/comments issue or code logic:
- line 17 talks about 'encryption' being an optional param and defaults to
'md5-hex'
- but in _comparePasswords(), the 'encryption' param is checked if it is set, if
not it actually defaults to plaintext in line 396, hence the default sql auth
setup doesn't authenticate.
