Hi,
I am storing users passwords in a userPassword attribute. When the
passwords are hashed with MD5 I can bind as the user just fine. If I
hash the password with sha-256 I get invalid credentials.
Is there something I have to change in my client?
Is there something I have to change on the server?
Is binding a user with a password stored with sha-256 (or at least
something better then md5) even possible?
Yes, if you correctly use the passwd contrib module allowing non-RFC hashes.
