I concur with Quanah: I know many operational procedures where slappasswd=
 is
just used to generate pre-hashed userPassword values. This usage is suppo=
rted
by DESCRIPTION in slappasswd(8). I also don't see a requirement for
administrative access to slapd's config at all.

Doesn't this ask for fully integrating SHA-2 password support into
libraries/liblutil/passwd.c?

Ciao, Michael.
