Support variable length salts for SSHA and SMD5
-----------------------------------------------

                 Key: DIRSERVER-1375
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DIRSERVER-1375
             Project: Directory ApacheDS
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ldap
    Affects Versions: 1.5.4
            Reporter: Stefan Reuter


ApacheDS requires the salt of SSHA passwords to be 8 bytes. OpenLDAP uses 4 bytes for the salt. Migrating from OpenLDAP to ApacheDS thus causes problems as users are unable to bind if their userpassword uses a salted password scheme.

Please support variable length salts in ApacheDS so it is also possible to bind with a SSHA (or SMD5) password that contain a 4 byte salt.
