IS there a method of calling SSHA when stuffing passwords into the
directory?
We use the Digest::SHA1 and MIME::Base64 modules like this:
$ctx = Digest::SHA1->new;
$ctx->add($password);
$ctx->add($salt);
$hashedPasswd = '{SSHA}' . encode_base64($ctx->digest . $salt ,'');
where $salt is a four-byte random value, $password is the password to
encode, and $hashedPasswd is the resulting SSHA string ready for stuffing.
