Storing 'userPassword' encrypted via server settings.




I've been wowrking towards setting up several HPUX servers to authenticate off
of openldap.  So far I've got the appropriate schema added so that I can run
through the ldapux setup without problems and hook nss and pam into ldap. 
Authentication works, but when changing my password via the HPUX passwd command
it stores the password in clear text on the openldap server.  I found this note
from 1999 and wondered if there has been any progress.

Is it possible to change core.schema's attribute type for 'userPassword' to
accomplish server based encryption?

In case it matters I'm running HPUX 11i with LdapUxClient B.03.10

Thanks!
