Hello to everyone, We are trying to enable ldap authentication with pam_ldap and md5 passwords on a Solaris 10 system to an openldap server. If passwords are stored using crypt, everything works correctly. But if the password in openldap is in md5, then authentication fails. We have installed openldap client along with pam_ldap and nss_ldap from padl (http://www.padl.com/pam_ldap.html) Our openldap version is openldap-2.3.39 And all passwords are encrypted with : Base 64 encoded md5 Below is a sample password:

|{md5}2FeO34RYzgb7xbt2pYxcpA==|

The error messages when trying to 'su -' to the ldap user are:

|Jun 1 18:35:23 servername su: [ID 896952 auth.debug] pam_unix_auth: entering pam_sm_authenticate() Jun 1 18:35:23 servername su: [ID 810491 auth.crit]'su ldapuser' failed*for* mike on /dev/pts/4

|and for ssh:
