[Freeipa-devel] [PATCH] #412 Make always use of special salt type

[Simo Sorce]

By using the special salt type and generating a random salt we can
rename user's principal name without invalidating their password.

This works only if pre-authentication is required, but that's how we
configure our server anyway.

This patch does not disallow "normal" salts, but if used they will
prevent renames from working correctly.
By default special is used.

Simo.
