Hi,
I already have a perl script that encrypts MD5 passwords (found in OpenLDAP FAQ). For
my testing I used a C source code I recompiled, but it's not my real problem I guess :
I compared hashed passwords with the ones given in RFCs and my program seems to be ok.
My main problem stands in the syntax I have to use to set the userPassword value in
the LDAP server.
In my LDIF I use :
userPassword: {MD5}X098f6bcd4621d373cade4e832627b4f6==
Is this correct ? (should mean "test" in clear)
thanks for your script and your attention !
