Quoting Dan: "This is Unix, stop acting so helpless".
Due to the heat I'm glad enough to share my password crypt function (perl):
sub crypt_passwd {
my($passwd) = @_;
@times=gmtime;
srand($times[0] * $times[1] | $$);
@alpha = ('a'..'z');
$salt = @alpha[rand(25)] . @alpha[rand(25)];
$passwd = crypt($passwd, $salt);
return $passwd;
}
then you can just write the result to the LDIF like
print "UserPassword: {crypt}" . crypt_password($cleartextpassword) . "\n";

Unix is very simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity.
