[jira] Created: (JAMES-332) SHA hard coded in adduser

SHA hard coded in adduser
-------------------------

         Key: JAMES-332
         URL: http://nagoya.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-332
     Project: James
        Type: Bug
  Components: UsersStore & UsersRepository, SpoolManager & Processors  
    Versions: 2.2.0    
 Environment: FreeBSD, Sun JDK 1.4.2-p6, MySQL via. C-JDBC.
    Reporter: Brill Pappin
    Priority: Critical


It seems that JDBC is the default digest alg when creating users. this works fine when the use repository doesn't have to work with anything else, but MD5 is more common.

In my case, I'm using a custom configuration that allows me to use the same auth table for Tomcat and James. I think (though I haven't checked) that I can configure tomcat to use SHA, but I have a significan't amount of legacy data that uses MD5, whic is going to break thing.

As of now, my only option is to *try* and recompile James with MD5 as the default (and I havn't had much luck yet). Because of that, this ticket is marked as Critical.

Sorry, miss-typed that, I meant SHA is the default digest.
