Preinstalled Schemes

Existing schemes delivered with Directory Server are provided as password storage scheme plug-ins. Search cn=config for entries whose DN contains cn=Password Storage Schemes. The default password storage scheme uses the Salted Secure Hashing Algorithm (SSHA).

You can change the password storage scheme used to encode user passwords. See Chapter 7, Directory Server Password Policy, in Sun Java System Directory Server Enterprise Edition 6.0 Administration Guide for instructions.
