TACACS encryption won't help if you follow the Cisco Essential IOS Features (v 2.82 - Feb 18, 2000). On page 45 they discuss router command auditing and recommend:

Unfortunately, this will log in your syslog the password commands in cleartext. You would have to be sure that the Unix/NT system you are logging all Cisco commands to is as secure as your router. How many of you run ISS/Cybercop/Netrecon scans every week on your logging servers to be sure they are secure?
Hrm, that's odd, since I was using TACACS+ accounting a while ago (that exact command actually) and it never logged any passwords that I entered... Alec -- Alec H.
