Module              om_odbc
    ConnectionString    Driver={ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server}; Server=MSSQL-HOST; UID=test; PWD=testpass; Database=TESTDB`

or windows

Module im_msvistalog

Hi,

Unfortunately, right now it's not possible to store hashed passwords inside the conf file.

There'e some new features approaching, letting use different authentication, but it will go first with NXLog Enterprise Edition.

Best regards,
