OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : OpenLDAP Software FAQ : Configuration : SLAPD Configuration : Passwords : How do I specify the crypt(3) salt format to use? | |
If you need to use a special salt format for the specific version of crypt(3) that you use, you may use the password-crypt-salt-format directive.password-crypt-salt-format "$1$%.8s"will get you an md5-style crypted password on some modern unices. Check your version to make sure it does the right thing by using the scripts in earlier sections of this FAQ. | |
Note: this directive only impacts passwords set using the LDAP Password Modify operation (RFC 3062). slapd(8) does not otherwise hash passwords.
