Hi!

After installing libpam-ldap in the default /etc/pam_ldap.conf the
pam_password entry is

  pam_password crypt

This leads to password entries in the LDAP directory which contain
just "{crypt}XXXX...." so that they can be easily attacked. The
default should be

  pam_password exop

so that the extended LDAP password update operation is used. Passwords
are then salted and hashed.

Best regards,
Robert
