I have a perl script which read some values from a file and add them in database. The file conatin usernames, passwords etc in clear text.
I want after reading the values from file my perl script crypt the userpassword value into SHA and then add it into databse.
Is it practicaly possible to read a value from file then convert it on the fly and add to DB.

If any body intrested then i will show my script.
