See ldappasswd(1).  OpenLDAP support authentication using encrypted
passwords, but requires client side to generate the encrypted values.

ok that is functionning but now my userpassword 'eric' is crypted so now how to do with my command ldapsearch -D "cn=Eric,o=Right Vison" -w eric "objectclass=*" 'Invalid credentials' error due to the encrypted password !!!!!!!!!!!

Many thanks Kurt,
Fabrice
