I should have given more details.
I meant the 'userPassword' attribute in the 'person' object. I've been using the old UMich LDAP-server for some time now, which returns the userPassword as stored in the database. This we can use to verify users on unix machines (pam_ldap or nss_ldap).
Now the OID server encrypts the userPassword attributes to something which looks like LanMan (NT) encryption, which is unusable on a (my) unix systems.
So all I want to know is were I can switch off this behaviour, if at all possible.
