So, as someone else noted, if your previous OpenLDAP version used a {crypt}
type hash, the newer build of OpenLDAP may not support {crypt} type
passwords. So, my suggestion was you modify the password of the user who
can't bind. You can do this using the rootdn and the ldappasswd utility.

Quanah,
I tried this morning to change the password:
ldappasswd -s <password> -Wx -D "uid=admin,dc=<domain>,dc=com"
"uid=readOnlyUser,ou=system,dc=<domain>,dc=com"
I confirmed that the hashed password changed. I still get invalid
credentials. I am betting that there is some little simple thing that is
holding this up.
Thanks,
Eric
