Converting user passwords to OD when no users are OD

[Anonymous]

I’m not sure how this happened since I have three boxes which are all clones, but, my VPN serving box has no users with advanced passwords. The two admin accounts are shadow, the rest are crypt.

I know no way to change user password types without a user with OD password type being promoted. I’ve tried NeST -hostpasswordserver and -convertuser, but nothing works. It’s impossible for me to do a fresh install without committing a week for travel and labor.

If the above isn’t possible, then is there a way to use Apple’s VPN server to authenticate WITHOUT Open Directory?

[root@x:~]# NeST -hostpasswordserver josh pass 69.x.y.z

[root@x:~]# NeST -verifypasswordserveradmin 69.x.y.z josh pass
failure

User never changes password type. Also doesn’t work for any user I try, existing or not. Same for the IP – doesn’t matter if it’s local or public.

There’s definitely a chance I’m not too sure what I’m doing.
