we’re going to implement CONTENS (a CMS) soon and will replicate the company’s users from the DominoDirectory via LDAP to CONTENS. we’d like to use DDs members InternetPasswords in CONTENS too, but there seems to be a problem using the hashed string with CONTENS.question: is there a) a way i can extract the hashed password in its original text format from DD, or b) is there a way to convert (with a logarithm) the password to plain text again?
thanx for any hint concerning using LDAP with DominoDirectory!

a) no
b) no
It is a one-way hash algorithm. You’d have to intercept the passwords outside of Notes/Domino. The IBM Tivoli Directory Integrator has a password interceptor solution for this - as it intercepts the passwords (as a web proxy), it writes it to the entry in your other directory. Search the IBM website for info on this.
