答复: 回复： mirror mode question
Hi Michael and Dieter,
I see the below mail, can I understand only the mirror mode replication can’t use the
HASH password in rootpw, other Synchronous replication mode(example: syncrepl proxy) can
use the HASH password?
Thanks and regards

In order to use sasl, passwords must be cleartext and you should
configure an apropriate authz-regexp, see man slapd.conf(5)
You may use any sasl mechanism that you sasl framework provides.
[...]
To be more precise: In order to use password-based SASL mechs the passwords
have to be stored in clear-text.
Well, if working with SASL and TLS (LDAPS, StartTLS) one should consider using
client certs and SASL/EXTERNAL for replication.
Ciao, Michael.
