My problem is the userpassword attribute. On netscape directory server, it
is stored with SHA encryption. I would like to know if I can I copy
directly the hash from netscape directory userpassword attribute to
openldap userpassword attribute?


Yes, you can.

(The "string" I want to copy has the form userpassword:
{SHA}JWbM0L8IElbc556eRnTeW1rns9s=)

I guess no.


OpenLDAP also implements this password scheme.

Ciao, Michael.
