Issue #363 has been updated by Oliver Geisen.

There should be no password, whether in cleartext or crypted, be placed in 
config files because,
 - Config get lost/stolen and brute forced, no good idea
 - need to update ALL servers using this script if bindpw changes
 - but, having the same binddn for ALL servers is also a bad idea (you can't 
distinguish when it comes up to deny one of those)
Better solution would be to have one bind-user for each usage and to authorize 
this user by Kerberos. There you have a keytab (public key) not a password, 
which is much safer and could be transported even via unsecure routes. There 
must be a way to use kerberos as bind-user.
