I also notice when I export this record as an LDIF file the userPassword attribute has been hashed: userPassword:: e1NBU0x9YmJpY2VAbGRhcA==
This is not a hash. This is base64 encoding, as has been discussed a few thousand times on this list. ;) You simply need to decode it to see the actual value. This is per RFC.
