Can Nimble handle sha256 hashes?

We would like to replace:
$md5raw = md5($str2hash, true);

with sha256:
$md5raw = hash('sha256',$str2hash);

If it can handle sha256:
Are there any instructions I can follow to set it up at the nimble server?

Hi,
no it doesn't. it expect to see md5 and there is no option to change it. It still secure enough for wmsauth and work 10 years this way.
I know sha256 is recommended but again - md5 is still enough for wmsauth purposes
