hello,
I saw many thread on LDAP in this list but none answered completly my
question.
I have installed LDAP auth on tru64/5.1B via SIA and OSFLDPAUTH540.
The only documentation I found about acceptable form of password
attribute was for InternetExpress. It described this form as classical
"{encryption}encrypted_string" but after some tests I realized that
the client only accepted the form "encrypted_string" (without the
encryption type specification) and with "CRYPT" encryption type.
It is disturbing since the LDAP server is also used for others hosts
which rely on classical form. Of course, I could create an other
attribute just for Tru64 but it will imply pb for password
synchronization.
Is there somewhere a complete technical documentation on LDAP auth
with OSFLDPAUTH540 ?
Is there a solution to make LDAP auth recognize the classical password
form ?
PS: in fact, it will be great, if LDAP auth would rely on LDAP server
bind and not on fetching crypted password string.
Thank in advance,
