[ApacheDS] Hash question

[Jason Russler]

 Can the (MD5) password hashes from a shadow file be re-encoded to 
something Apache DS can understand - or are the hashing algorithms 
different?  I'm guessing it's using the Java "MessageDigest" stuff that 
I know nothing about.  The ability to migrate passwords from an existing 
shadow file would be really handy.  I'm guessing it isn't doable but one 
can hope... Thanks.
