I just gave this a try and changed a user's password to "password" which resulted in the MD5 hash "$md5$4bNuD9JW$$P/Lr2qkcw9wv1yYNokfQG0".
I created an LDIF file with the following line and imported it into the directory:
userPassword: {CRYPT}$md5$4bNuD9JW$$P/Lr2qkcw9wv1yYNokfQG0
The phrase after {CRYPT}) is the hash Solaris put in its /etc/shadow.
After importing this line into the LDAP directory, I could *not* login as the corresponding user using the password "password". :-(
It is not: We're running OpenLDAP on Debian GNU/Linux...
What is doing the authentication? Are you using pam_unix via an ldap nss module, or maybe pam_ldap?
If pam_unix, see pam_unix/passverify.c in the pam source, which expects an md5 hash to have the format of:
$1$SALT$HASH
like:
$1$6biGTEUt$FrTcXRocuExNsLZItn06l1
However, you have two dollar signs after your salt, and I don't know that indicates. I tried playing around with your hash but couldn't get it to match 'password' on my Debian system.
