Convert existing openLDAP password from SSHA to SHA-1

[William Muriithi]

Afternoon,

I got a question that I have not found a solution despite tinkering
with it and googling for weeks.  Would like to share it here and hopes
someone could have a suggestion/solution or just a confirmation this
may not be possible

I would like to move some users to google services through a postini
application called "Google Apps Directory Sync". This application only
supports MD5 and SHA-1.  It happen though openLDAP does not hash the
password as either MD5 or SHA-1 and I am therefore getting an error
"InvalidHashDigestLength" when I run the postini application.

What I have been looking for is a mean of converting the existing
password to SHA-1 and I have not been successful. Any pointer advice
where I can start?

Regards,

William
