Hello everyone,

I've been away from the geoserver community for a while,
but I am back now looking to upgrade our working Geoserver
installation.

We have a working geoserver V2.0 installation, which
uses a shared JDBC database containing MD5 password hashes
for authentication - I managed to get geoserver to recognise
this instead of the old plain text users.properties file by manually
editing applicationSecurityContext.xml to add new
userDetailsService and dataSource beans.

I would now like to use this same user database with the
current version of Geoserver, but I see that the comprehensive
new authentication framework has completely skipped past
MD5 password hashing!

Is there any way to get Geoserver V2.4 to
use a user/group service with simple MD5 password hashes instead
of the PBE or SHA algorithms used by default?

Thanks,

Chris
