Use an LDAP Browser to Import Encoded Passwords From LDIF

Because Acme has an LDIF file that includes encoded passwords, Jane must configure an LDAP browser to handle this correctly on import.

  1. From the Windows Control Panel Services window, stop the LDAP server.
  2. In a text editor, open <OpenDS_InstallDir>\config\config.ldif.
  3. Change the value of the ds-cfg-allow-pre-encoded-passwords property to true.
  4. Save the changes, then restart the LDAP server.
