Sorry to butt in on this, but how do you let the OpenLDAP server use its
default encryption?  Since 2.4 whatever I have done stores the
userPassword attribute in clear text when using passwd(1) from our Linux
or Solaris boxes.  ldappasswd states that is not a replacement for
passwd(1), what I'd like is to return to the state in OpenLDAP-2.2 and
previous where the passwords were stored encrypted in some fashion.
I've been banging my head about this for 3 months so any pointers would be
very much appreciated.

If you have questions, please keep them on the list.  Thanks.

<http://www.openldap.org/software/man.cgi?query=slapd.conf&apropos=0&sektion=0&manpath=OpenLDAP+2.4-Release&format=html>

      password-hash <hash> [<hash>...]
              This option  configures  one  or  more  hashes  to  be  used  in
              generation   of   user  passwords  stored  in  the  userPassword
              attribute during processing of  LDAP  Password  Modify  Extended
              Operations (RFC 3062).  The <hash> must be one of {SSHA}, {SHA},
              {SMD5}, {MD5}, {CRYPT}, and {CLEARTEXT}.  The default is {SSHA}.
