SSL/TLS is fairly trivial to setup. You should do it. This isn't unexpected behavior. - chris Chris Jacobs Systems Administrator, Technology Services Group Apollo Group | Apollo Marketing & Product Development | Aptimus, Inc. 1501 4th Ave | Suite 2500 | Seattle, WA 98101 direct 206.839.8245 | cell 206.601.3256 | Fax 206.644.0628 email: [email protected] From: [email protected] <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Wed Sep 12 07:59:36 2012 Subject: pam_password exop Hi, Could you give me some more info on that parameter : pam_password exop All what i've found is this : The directive "pam_password exop" tells pam-ldap to change passwords in a way that allows OpenLDAP to apply the hashing algorithm specified in /etc/ldap/slapd.conf, instead of attempting to hash locally and write the result directly into the database. Does this mean that the password is sent clear to the ldap server then hashed over there ? It looks like a huge security flaw ... i've used tcpdump and unfortunately my password appears clearly ... using does imply enabling TLS ?
