PasswordHash
by Borresen, John - 0444 - MITLL
All,
I found Quanah's response to a post
(http://www.openldap.org/lists/openldap-devel/201411/msg00012.html), which
brought up a question(s).
1) I have the olcModule pw-sha2.la loaded in "cn=module{0},cn=config"
2) Looking at Quanahs reply, in the link above, he states:
now, if you want to make something like say, SHA512 the default, then you
need to modify the frontend config db:
dn: olcDatabase={-1},cn=config
changetype: modify
replace: olcPasswordHash
olcPasswordHash: {SSHA512}
Now, if I add, something like the above, and the current olcRootPW attribute
shows {SSHA}, is that going to modify current password hashes or only going
forward?
I tried the above, on cn=config, but received the following error
"According to the schema attribute olcPasswordHash is not allowed"
Thanks in advance,
