In this case "password" in taken as the password of the user
myuser. What you probably want is:
$ ldapsearch -b "dc=com,dc=pl" -x -W -D "uid=myuser,dc=com,dc=pl"
Enter LDAP Password:

Note that the -X requires SASL Support compiled into LDAP!
And don't forget to include -h IP.Add.Ree.ss in your command line!

Cheers,
Guus
