I have problem with getting access to userpassword, suggest the
correction
Security on ldap is simple bind with plain text password.
the statement I use is
ldapcompare -D 'cn=manager,ou=people,o=abc' -w secret -b
'cn=usr1,ou=people,o=abc'
-a userpassword -v passwd1
While above usage I've logged in as a normal user (no root priviledge)
