What Mark did not say was that you shouldn't be using any of these.
You should be using PBKDF2 (which is supported by Tomcat) or bcrypt or

If you are using one of the old, weak algorithms, it's possible to
configure Tomcat (and your web application) to upgrade everybody. I
have a presentation on this topic here:
