(Answer) (Category) OpenLDAP Faq-O-Matic : (Category) OpenLDAP Software FAQ : (Category) Installation : (Category) Platform Hints : (Category) Hewlett Packard HP-UX : (Answer) How do avoid password truncation when using client tools?
Due to limitations of getpass(3) on some HP-UX systems, password enterred to password prompts may be truncated to eight (8) characters. On such systems, you can configure with ac_cv_func_getpass=false to use built-in prompting code. That is,
  env ac_cv_func_getpass=true ./configure ...
Alternatively, you could a replace C library (like GNU C Library) or other library providing a replacement getpass(3) (or getpassphrase(3)) routine.
