Try giving the option "use_first_pass" to the LDAP-PAM-Module. But
this is something PAM-specific and shouldn't probably be discussed
here.

The LDIF-entry you've posted, also contains another problem:

userPassword: {crypt}$1$xxb015.t$82nccnBPZbYxYgunoshP91

This is almost certainly not a "crypted" password, but one using the
MD5-algorithm. So it should read:

userPassword: {md5}$1$xxb015.t$82nccnBPZbYxYgunoshP91

Or even better: Have a look at

http://www.openldap.org/faq/index.cgi?file=419

The details are discussed there and you'll also find some
recommendations on using passwords in LDAP.
