ok...So i'm an ID10T!! LOL. But seriously, I setup an OpenLdap server and migrated /etc/passwd to it, and all is well: however, I did that months ago, and you guessed it, somehow I'm having a "senior" moment, and can't remember the psw for the rootdn, so that I can add another user to the Ldap server. I'm sure there is probably a way to decode the "hashed/encrypted" password. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really don't want to have to delete everything and start again, but if that's what I must do, then so be it.
Thanks in advance,

Hey,
how about to generate new password with % slappasswd; and change it in '/etc/openldap/slapd.conf' line with 'rootpw' ? :)
