LDIF. The double colon indicates that the data is Base64 encoded. In
this case, for instance, the decoded value is:

roland@euklid:~$ python
Python 2.3+ (#2, Aug 10 2003, 11:33:47)
[GCC 3.3.1 (Debian)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import base64
>>> base64.decodestring('e1NTSEF9ZZc5eFc0N1hOT2x2YnNIUzBARi9qWmx1N3FzL1gzUnhBbDJMU3c9PQ==')
'{SSHA}e\x979xW47XNOlvbsHS0@F/jZlu7qs/X3RxAl2LSw=='
