I thought the field was only base64 encoded if it had offending
characters such as a space, or something not LDIF compliant?
E.G. you could see an entry that says {crypt}AFDA12321de323

Strangely they are not prefixed with the {HASHTYPE}.
When I run
ldappasswd -H ldapi:/// -D "cn=testuser,dc=iwu,dc=edu" -w Please -x -s

userPassword:: cGxlYXNl
What did I do?

userPassword is base-64 encoded. Decode it to see what the actual value
is.
