Yes, but it wouldn't work in this configuration using DES->SSHA with 1.0.4 
on RHEL, whereas it did in several tests on 1.0.3 on FC5. It wouldn't even
work DES->clear. I did not try clear->SSHA. I have to set up 2 more consumers,
so I will try all possible combinations when I do those and follow up.
