In practice we all live very well with this for years. That's least =

ldappasswd writes a hashed password to - tataa - attribute 'userPass=

I cannot see how this is different from using ldapadd/ldapmodify.

You're arguing based on what a LDAP server could do. I'm arguing based=
on what
OpenLDAP and other server implementations are doing for years.
=20 ActiveDirectory is an obvious example invalidating your argument.
Does MS AD support RFC 3062? AFAIK W2K3 doesn't. I don't currently have the possibility to check with most recent W2K8R2 t= hough.
Anyway that's not relevant here either. We're talking about how OpenLDAP stores and checks the passwords since over a decade.
Violating Standard Track (RFC 4519) schema specifications could be avoide= d by implementing RFC 3112. But this also never happened.
Don't fix what isn't broken.
With this argument you can immediately stop any progress. Maybe also a valuable statement by the OpenLDAP chief architect.
Ciao, Michael.
