Bug Description
there is an sha2 module in the openldap source contrib directory which implements the following sha2 password hashing schemes:
{SSHA-512}
{SSHA-384}
{SSHA-256}
{SHA-512}
{SHA-384}
{SHA-256}
i'd like to have it included in the slapd package.
the module can be found in contrib/
following the standard "make depend" when building openldap, the module can be built by running "make" in its directory. note that i had to add -fPIC to CCFLAGS in order to get it to build - e.g:
CCFLAGS = -Wall -g -fPIC
this may or may not be the right way to do this.
regards
-ben

Hi Ben. This seems like a reasonable request. You should note that upstream would prefer that people not use these password methods and instead focus on SCRAM based methods. See the discussion on why this module isn't in core here:
