If you connect with a user which have access to the userPassword property, you can add "userPassword" to the "jndi.search.attributes" parameter to the store. This should  expose the password as <userPassword xmlns="LDAP:">password</userPassword> .

This is more a LDAP philosophy problem. The permissions on ldap servers look often like that :

anonymous connection can perform authentification.
and only the user can read-write his userPassword property.

then if you want to expose password, you have two solutions.

  1. Slide connect with a ldap administrator login which have read access to passwords (security problem .. ?)
  2. When a the properties of user "/users/john" is required, create a new connection to the ldap with the user john ... But ... this is not possible because you do not have any credential (password) for john.

The real question is "do you really need to expose password in webdav properties ?"

note : the password in ldap are generally stored encrypted.

Hi all,

The documentation tells that JNDIPrincipalStore does not expose password. I
am wondering if there is a certain reason (design philosophy) for this. I am
thinking of implementing one that exposes password and would like to know
whether there is a reason for not doing it.

Thanks in advance for your input.
