Stefan Seelmann commented on DIRSTUDIO-1089:
--------------------------------------------
When hashing interceptor is disabled then hashing is done only by client
(DirStudio).
When hashing interceptor is enabled then there are two cases: If client hashes
the password then the server doesn't change it. If client just sends plaintext
then the server hashes it.
I didn't know that there is a setting in the configuration editor for that ;).
However on a new created server the checkbox is diabled while the interceptor
is enabled. I think that's because by default the new
ConfigurableHashingInterceptor class is used in the server but the
configuration editor doesn't know that.

> Cannot set a plain text password if the current is encrypted (whatever
> algorithm).
> Steps to repeat:
> # create an "inetOrgPerson"
> # add the "userPassword" attribute, set a "Plain text" password, save
> # edit "userPassword" value
> # in the "New Password" tab, enter a password (may be the very same) in
> "Enter New Password" and "Confirm New Password"; in "Select Hash Method"
> choose an algorithm different than "Plain Text" (I used "SHA" and
> "SSHA-512"); finally press "OK"
> # edit "userPassword" value again
> # in the "New Password" tab, enter a password (may be the very same) in
> "Enter New Password" and "Confirm New Password"; in "Select Hash Method"
> choose "Plain Text"; finally press "OK"
> # the entry shows that the algorithm is not "Plain Text"
