LDAP Accounts losing passwords



I am having the strangest problem and it has me quite worried. In my ldap
directory all the sudden the high schools user passwords are not working.
Its only the high school users and none of the middle schools user.

All the accounts were created at the same time and all worked initially. But
all the sudden nothing. Each account has 3 passwords. On the accounts that
are having the problem the NtPassword lmPassword work fine.

I don't know much about the crypt format or what ever but all the
alphanumeric in the crypt string look shorter in the accounts that don't
work than the strings that do.

The only thing I can think of that might be causing this problem it I have
backed up and restored the DB a few times using

slapcat > ldap.ldiff to make an ldif and
slapadd -l ldap.ldiff to put the db back into the database.

I would think that if this was a problem though It would cause trouble for
the other accounts.
