LDAP error code 19: cannot verify the quality of the non-cleartext passwords

I have successfully smoketested my geoportal application and am having a hard time with the new user registration functionality. In my gpt.xml, I have the passwordEncryptionAlgorithm value set to SHA. My server is rejecting the passwords (the error message is "LDAP error code 19: cannot verify the quality of the non-cleartext passwords").

I have seen where I need to change the pwdcheckquality, but I am not sure where this is. Also note that when I set up users manually using Apache DS, I have to set the passwords in cleartext, the SHA values were rejected. The only acceptable values for passwordEncryptionAlgorithm are SHA or MD5...otherwise, I could have gotten this going with plaintext.

I am a newbie to Apache DS, can anyone give me guidance on how to change the password policy to verify non-cleartext passwords?

Thanks!
