RedHat Openldap 2.4.31 replication
Hi,

I have done setup for openldap master and slave.
Its working fine and replicating also.

But it is working only with plane text password in syncrepl .

How we can use encrypted password here also like we are using in rootpw ?

Below portion is working.

Code:
syncrepl        rid=101
                provider="ldap://IP"
                type=refreshAndPersist
                interval=00:00:00:10
                retry="5 10 60 +"
                timeout=1
                schemachecking=off
                searchbase="dc=example,dc=com"
                scope=sub
                bindmethod=simple
                binddn="cn=Manager,dc=example,dc=com"
                credentials="secret"

I want to set like this.
Code:
                credentials="{SSHA}TIiiTEtl2a/EFjzd3yVhk1G3EeN2NiLr"

rootpw cannot contain an encrypted password but a password hash. While a hash allows to check an incoming connection credentials, it cannot be used as a password to connect to a remote directory server instance.

A good hash is a one way form of encryption. The only way to duplicate is accidentally finding a collision - entering a word that creates the identical hash value. With decent hashing and a salt value this becomes a very difficult task.

So any of the way by which it will not show plain password here.
