Title: AW: Get the decoded ldap password for openldap2.4.40

Keep in mind, that SSHA is salted hash. So for SHA it would have been possible to compare the hash against rainbow tables - it is not for salted hashes.

Slappasswd probably hashed (not encrypted) your password by the default
{SSHA} schema (see man slappasswd).  Hashing is one-way, you can only
get the plain password by brute-forcing it.
