<div>Thanks Richard!</div> <div> </div> <div>But how does Red Hat DS know that it need not rehash the password?</div> <div> </div> <div>e.g. Suppose I create a ldif file saying:</div> <div>userPassword=testppassword</div> <div> </div> <div>and export another ldif:</div> <div>userPassword=xyzRR$#==</div> <div> </div> <div>First one is in plain english since I create that and second one is in hashed format because I have exported an existing user. Now if i import these 2 to another Red Hat instance how will that new instance know that second one is already hashed?</div> <div> </div> <div>regards,</div> <div>Ankur</div> <div><BR><BR><B><I>Rich Megginson <rmeggins@redhat.com></I></B> wrote:</div> <BLOCKQUOTE class=replbq style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px; MARGIN-LEFT: 5px; BORDER-LEFT: #1010ff 2px solid">Ankur Agarwal wrote:<BR>> Hi,<BR>> <BR>> We want to migrate users from Netscape LDAP to RedHat DS.
