userPassword={MD5}wzNncBURtPYCDsYd7TUgWQ==
But when I retrieve the userPassword content later, I get this value:
e01ENX13ek5uY0JVUnRQWUNEc1lkN1RVZ1dRPT0=
What you are seeing (with `ldapsearch`) is the Base64-encoded (security through obscurity :-) value.
$ echo 'e01ENX13ek5uY0JVUnRQWUNEc1lkN1RVZ1dRPT0=' | openssl enc -a -d {MD5}wzNncBURtPYCDsYd7TUgWQ==
What has openldap done to it?
Nothing.
What do I have to do with the cleartext password to get the same value?
Relax: you are getting the same value. :-)
