Hi All,

I have an FDS and 389 instance set up with a number of users, and password 
policy requiring minimum password length, some numbers, and some other 
characters. 

This all works well for mandating secure passwords. However, whenever users 
authenticate via LDAP the server appears to check only the first 8 characters 
of their passwords. For example if a user has a password of "foobar1234!" they 
can still login with "foobar12" or "foobar12bazbaz" I've tested this with unix 
client logins (via PAM) and directly via the ldapsearch command. Both exhibit 
the same behavior. 

Goo diligence hasn't really turned up anything, though it could be I'm missing 
the obvious. Has anyone run into this problem before? Is this possibly an issue 
with they way i'm storing passwords?

        -Aaron
