3.1.25. Password Storage Schemes
The
cn=Password Storage Schemes
entry is a container entry, not a plug-in entry itself. All
of the plug-ins used for encryption are stored under this entry. The supported schemes change
as new encryption methods are added; to view the complete and current list, list the entries under
cn=Password Storage Schemes,
cn=plugins, cn=config
:
/usr/lib/mozldap/ldapsearch -D "cn=directory manager" -w secret12 -p 389 -b "cn=Password
Storage Schemes,cn=plugins, cn=config" -s sub (objectclass=*)
The different password storage scheme plug-ins are stored in entries named in the format:
cn=
Storage Scheme Name
Plugin,cn=Password Storage Schemes,cn=plugins,cn=config
For more information on using the different password storage schemes, see the "User Account
Management" chapter in the
Directory Server Administrator's Guide
.
CAUTION
Do not modify the configuration of the password scheme plug-ins. Red Hat recommends
leaving these plug-ins running at all times.
Storage Scheme Name
Usage Notes
CLEAR
This encryption method is required for using
SASL.
CRYPT
This storage scheme is not very secure and is
included only for compatibility with legacy servers
and to allow migration.
DES
This encryption scheme is used only for
reversible encryption and is available for certain
plug-ins; this is not intended for password
storage.
MD5
This storage scheme is not very secure and is
included only for compatibility with legacy servers
and to allow migration.
NS-MTA-MD5
The NS-MTA-MD5 password storage scheme
cannot be used to encrypt passwords. The
storage scheme is still present for backward
compatibility for any entries stored in the
directory with passwords encrypted with the NS-
MTA-MD5 password storage scheme.
SHA
If there are no passwords encrypted using the
SHA password storage scheme, this plug-in can
be turned off.
Instead of encrypting passwords with the
SHA password storage scheme, Red Hat
recommends choosing SSHA instead because it
is more secure.
