I'm trying to migrate from qmail-ldap 1.03 patch 20040401 from
slackware 9.1 x86 to slackware 13.0 x86_64 or rhel 5.2 x86_64.
Until now, I stored passwords in md5crypt format in the ldap database
and everything worked ok.
I migrated the database and now I store passwords in ssha format.
Is ssha encryption method compatible with qmail-ldap auth programs
(auth_pop, auth_imap, auth_smtp) ?
I ask this because I can't authenticate at all.
I use sha with my qmail-ldap, dovecot install. works fine for me with
auth_imap, and auth_smtp. How did you convert your passwords from md5 to
sha? Maybe there in lies your problem. Did you try using
/usr/sbin/slappasswd -h '{SHA}' -s testpassword
to generate a sha password and then set your ldap account and verify
that it is in fact the password.
