Re : Re: Openldap support SHA-256 or SHA-3.

Just to note, both SHA2 and SHA3 are designed to be cheap to compute and easy to implement
in hardware. Neither of these are desirable properties for a password hash. At this point
we should only be talking about Argon2, which won the password hashing competition.
