After some experimenting, I was able to setup FTP authentication for the Unix user accounts using {SSHA} hashed passwords. Maybe there are other working methods as well, but that's an exercise for the reader to find them. [IMAGE]
Dear Experts,  We have a multiprotocol NAS server (CIFS, NFS and FTP) on a VNXe3200. The FTP access should only be allowed for Unix user accounts, stored in an LDAP directory service. The LDAP server has the RFC 2307 schema, i.e. the user data can be found in the posixAccount objectclass and the login password in its userPassword attribute.  My question is: how should the password look like in the LDAP output? Plain text or hashed ({SSHA}, {SMD5}...)? Base64 encoded or not? Unfortunately I haven't found any information on this so far and I can't seem to get the FTP authentication working.  Can someone please shed a light on this? Any help (link, howto...) would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!
