One alternative is to pass user/password via environment variables and then use #!substdef in configuration file, with the replacement using the corresponding $env(...) variables.
If the goal is protecting the configuration file content in long term against being read in the future, two other options:
- remove kamailio.cfg after starting kamailio, it is not needed at runtime
- encrypt kamailio.cfg and pipe its decrypted content to kamailio at startup, like:
decryptapp kamailio-encrypted.cfg | kamailio -f - ...
Cheers, Daniel

I just get the params from AWS Parameter Store and pass it to Kamailio on startup. Downsize is you can see them in “ps”.

Alternative way is to use unixodbc, but it just means you put the password into another file. ср, 18 нояб. 2020 г. в 14:35, Alexandru Covalschi <568691@gmail.com <mailto:568691@gmail.com>>: Don't use databases. Create an API and use it to access the data you need. Won't work for every possible usage, but in general API-driven SIP-routing is very possible with Kamailio, especially with KEMI. ср, 18 нояб. 2020 г. в 11:32, Ahmed Marsou <amarsou1988@gmail.com <mailto:amarsou1988@gmail.com>>: Hi; I want to remove all plain text usernames an passwords from kamailio.cfg file.
