question about password hash

[christopher.riley at r-it.at (christopher.riley at r-it.at)]

To be honest that could be a password for anything. It's not structured in
such a way that a normal hashed password would be.

For example it's 15 chars long, which isn't a normal length for a hashing
algorithm (i.e MD5 is 32bits, sha-1 is 160bits). It also uses characters
other than hexadecimal. At first glance I thought it could be a LTPAToken,
but although it has a slash in the password, the length is far too short.

Does the config file give anymore information like program names, port
numbers, or anything that could give a hint on what the service/program
is ?
