When I asked notable Kiwi security researcher Peter Gutmann on the
sidelines of Kiwicon about what to use if I ever imagined a Samba un-
shackled from the restrictions of Windows compatibility (the printed
conference program poked fun at AD for MD4), he strongly recommended
Argon2 as mentioned in the link above.
Either way, I'll follow this thread with interest, as I'm keen to have
a password hash in Samba that is both best-of-breed and shared between
modern OpenLDAP and Samba, for our administrators who need password
sync.
