Re: Encryption or hash for password?



Thanks,
I thought crypt as well... but then I would expect it to look like:
userPassword: {CRYPT}saHW9GdxihkGQ

instead slapcat generates: 
userPassword:: skadfjsajf=

Two small differences: there is two :: instead of one and all of the userPassword entries ends in =.

Regards

Objet : Encryption or hash for password?

 

Hi

I am using the default Ubuntu 12.10 openldap installation and have inherited an existing ldap setup. When I do a slapcat -n 1

 

It shows userPassword entries as follows:

 

userPassword:: e2NyeFB0fSQxJEkwKGc3bGJjJFpwL3JndlpCZDBlSPZuZGdoMFczTC8=

 

( password string has been edited... )

 

I am not sure how this is encoded... is there a way to find out? I have tried md5 which is currently the default encoding for our servers.

 

I have also tried slappasswd with various -h option to see if I can recreate the same hash if it is a hash. 

 

I want to add new users using ldif and would like to encrypt/hash their passwords in a similar fashion if possible.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

 

Regards
