Encrypting passwords [message #386686]

Hi All,
Is there a way using oracle built-in function to encrypt plain text?
Actually my problems is that I store all the authentication information (including password) inside a LOGIN_INFO_TABLE and the database authenticates the users logging to the application using the passwords stored in the table.
My ideal plan is to encrypt the password, so that it is not visible in the plain text.
My Db is 10gR1.
Kindly provide me the various methods of implementation.
Thanks in advance
nani
