!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is described in [RFC 3112] a standard method for encoding a user [Password] for storage in the server, ideally in a manner that makes it difficult or impossible to determine the clear-text value of that password.
The authentication password syntax is described in [RFC 3112], which defines the "[authPassword]" [AttributeType] and a corresponding "[authPasswordObject]" [auxiliary object class|AUXILIARY] that will allow the use of that attribute.
The basic form of a password encoded using the authentication password syntax is:
''scheme''{{$}}''authInfo''{{$}}''authValue''
where ''scheme'' is the name of the scheme used to encode the value, ''authInfo'' is some kind of modifier (for example, a [Salt]) used in the encoding process, and ''authValue'' is the encoded password information. For example, the value "{{SHA1$RzqH67DY3uQ=$atAcDs1eS+IJwPy7V4UDXEoBrDI=}}" is encoded using the authentication password syntax (the scheme is "{{SHA1}}", the authInfo element is "{{RzqH67DY3uQ=}}", and the authValue element is "{{atAcDs1eS+IJwPy7V4UDXEoBrDI=}}").
