Default encryption scheme for SynchronizingLDAPExtLoginModul

[deanouk]

Hi all,

We have a scheme where if AD is down, the user authenticates via the locally stored credentials in the database, which have been stored via the SynchronizingLDAPExtLoginModule.

However. I'm having trouble matching the password scheme of the database login module (DBIdentityLoginModule) to that of the SynchronizingLDAPExtLoginModule.

What scheme does SynchronizingLDAPExtLoginModule use and what should I configure the database login module to use so that passwords can be validated locally?

Regards,

Dean

We have a similar setup with AD authentication and DB as a backup. I have the DBIdentityLoginModule configured with the options of:

<module-option name="hashAlgorithm">MD5</module-option>
<module-option name="hashEncoding">HEX</module-option>

I believe these are the defaults for this module.

Thanks for your reply.

I actually tried this scheme and it failed. However, as you suggested it again I gave it another whirl and found I have some other problem, as the password was being validated.

Thanks for your help.
