> Currently, ApacheDS 1.5.5 authenticates users with passwords stored with following algorithms:
> * (plain text)
> * SHA
> * SSHA
> * MD5
> * SMD5
> * CRYPT
> see class org.apache.directory.server.core.authn.SimpleAuthenticator and enum org.apache.directory.shared.ldap.constants.LdapSecurityConstants.
> Most of them are considered weak. http://www.schneier.com/essay-074.html
> SHA-256 is not directly supported. How about adding it to the list?
