Then the application is dependent on clear text passwords, not hashed passwords, and again is irrelevant to this discussion.If it were cleartext, there would not be issues with the hash algorithm used IMHO. No, we were talking about SSHA and sucessors.
Then any such application is bound to fail now, as people are already free (and already do) use other mechansisms than SSHA to hash their passwords with LDAP. Also, such an application again has zero to do with the OS, which was your contention to start with.
