Hi William, > PBKDF2_SHA256 does not work on EL7 due to a limitation with the NSS > crypto provider.

For that I apologise. this is very interesting to me. We had a discussion on PBKDF2_SHA256 on RHEL 7.4 last autumn: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/389-users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx/thread/3SPWGFI7JX4V5U4ACOX4P3BSQVF5XEWB/ Does your quote here explain the behavior I saw in our discussion? I'm confused now because we still have the PBKDF2_SHA256 plugin enabled on our servers and the Directory Manager password is actually hashed using PBKDF2_SHA256. It does work and I also cannot find any log messages containing "crypto" or "provider". We are currently using RHEL 7.5 and 389-ds-base 1.3.7.5-19.el7_5.
