I was probably a bit confusing in describing it: I get the "e0NSWVBUfUFDOTl5RjBhWVNZNmM" when querying the LDAP server using ldapsearch, while "ACJJox72N4DZQ" was the getent shadow answer after I enabled LDAP to be used to authorise system users (via nsswitch.conf). > This is a base64 representation of a old crypt hash "AC99yF0aYSY6c" (which is > a hash of the password 'sftptest') Ah, I did not know that ldapsearch would give me a base64 representation. I expected the hash "ACJJox72N4DZQ". (ftptest is a test user only, btw) On Sun, Oct 25, 2020 at 10:17 AM Craig Sanders via luv-main <[email protected]> wrote: > It doesn't even start with "$1$" Yes, that confused me.

We are on that but I am not sure whether the old password representation may bite us. The problem is that it may contain passwords we do not know so we cannot just retype it. Will see how that works. > congrats - you're well on the way to migrating your ldap infrastructure to > something modern. That is what I want..
