OpenLDAP Software generally uses userPassword for passwords, its an octetString compared octetwise per RFC 2256. Client software is responsible for ensuring any character data in passwords is presented in a common way on the wire. Usernames in LDAP are generally DNs. OpenLDAP Software does not place significant restrictions on the kinds of values one can use in naming. (OpenLDAP supports SASL, usernames and passwords (where used) depend on the mechanism involved.) Kurt
