I get the idea now - I didn't trust the man pages cuz I thought they
were padl's but I see that they are openldap's man pages.

The attribute binddn works but I was hoping that bindpw would work - I
guess that is a padl convention. I wanted to do this without the
interactive password or having to insert a password into the shell
script that calls ldapmodify/ldapadd
