I think I already know the answer, but I would like to be absolutely sure about it. Could I generate a {SSHA1} hash of a password (to be used for the rootdn account) with the help of slappasswd utility on a system and reuse that salted hash for the very same purpose but on a different operating system?
{SSHA} (salted SHA-1) is platform-independent.
In opposite to that {CRYPT} is not the same on all platforms depending on implemented hash-schemes of crypt(3) function.
