japanese ircnet servers have allowed connections outside of *.jp hosts for at 
least 20 years with the same password. i guess it was sufficient enough that 
it's not something the l33t hackers would think to search. and you'd have to 
translate the text to get the password (which might not have been easy until 
around 2006 without actual books or someone that can read it)
