I'm trying to store the hypothetical password "{SSHA}" in cleartext, but slappasswd refuses to help:
$ /usr/sbin/slappasswd -s {SSHA} -h {CLEARTEXT} Password verification failed.
On #openldap hbf suggested that I file an ITS ("work" in the following means allowing binding):
hbf: Looks like {CLEARTEXT} itself is broken. I think "userPassword: {CLEARTEXT}secret" should work, and so that slappasswd -h {CLEARTEXT} -s secret can output {CLEARTEXT}secret and userPassword: {CLEARTEXT}{SSHA} would be valid.
As I agree with him, here it is.
