Thanks for the info. I should have looked at this document in the first 
place.

Well, thats what I'm doing for  sambaNTpassword and friends, but for 
'userPassword' I dont know the scheme set in slapd.conf (password-hash), 
so it only works if I know the used mechanism and make it a  config 
option on the client side.
