I think it would be wise to update OpenLDAP to a different default for userPassword.
Yes!
We currently have the Contrib SHA2 module,
SHA-2 hashes with one round are also way too fast to be a good password hash algorithm.
It may be time to move the SHA2 module into core,
Yes, but there should be something stronger.
Did you just skip entirely past the point where I said:
"but there has been some discussion of the limitations of the current SHA2 module in the past that would likely need addressing"
Sorry, it seems I misread your sentence: I assumed you're talking about concrete deficiencies of the implementation in ./contrib/slapd-modules/passwd/sha2.
I was referring to strength of password hashing scheme.
And yes, perhaps PBKDF2 should be in core as well. ;)
Would be nice.
Ciao, Michael.
