You would need to convert the your DB entries to LDAP entries, but 389 supports your password type, so it should not be a problem if you copy & paste the password hashes. LDAP expects the password to be something like:<o:p></o:p><pre> userpassword: {SSHA}cchzM+LrPCvbZdthOC8e62d4h7a4CfoNvl6d/w==<o:p></o:p></pre>Mark On 06/24/2012 02:30 PM, Joe Linoff wrote: <o:p></o:p>Hi Everybody:<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>We have a legacy web based application (CakePHP) that stores user data in a DB and I would like to transfer that information to a FreeIPA Identity Management Server without requiring the users to re-enter their passwords (if possible).<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>How would I do that?<o:p></o:p> <o:p></o:p>I know that the DB stores the password as a SHA-1 hash with a salt.
