Yes, I did and it works well.
You can write your password into the userPassword attribute. It has the
form '{MD5}XYZXYZXYZXYZXYZ...', but base64 encoded.
You can also put 'password-hash {MD5}' in you slapd.conf so if you use
ldappasswd to change passwords, it will store them as MD5 by default.
You can then use saslauthd->pam_ldap->LDAP or saslauthd->LDAP to
authenticate users.
