It's a security/access problem. You need to bind to the server in order to view the userPassword.
Try binding with some account, and you will se the userPassword field, for example: ldapsearch -x -W -D "uid=myuid,ou=People,dc=programapuente,dc=cl" "(uid=myuid)" userPassword Here you give the Distinguished Name to bind: -D "uid=myuid,ou=People,dc=programapuente,dc=cl" And the criteria to search: "(uid=myuid)" The field to return (optional). userPassword You can connect as manager if you wish. For me it's ok not to show the password to anybody, even it's encrypted.
