Hi Simon,

Another solution, if your IOS version is not too old, it's to replace the 
"password" command by the "secret" command.

username admin privilege 15 secret ........

With this version (and with the parameter FILTER_PWDS set at 1), you can 
keep the secret password in the saved config.

But, be carefully, some password are always configured with the "password" 
command (like OSPF or BGP preshared key).
