LDAP UF encryption vs other web apps

Can anybody shed some light on the LDAP UF, and how it's
encrypting user pws?

I see the def _createLDAPPassword(password,
encoding='SHA') in 
./LDAPUserFolder/utils.py

where encoding == crypt creates a two char salt...

however, the encoded PW in the LDAP record looks like this:
userPassword:: e0NSWVBUfXNhZU5NbnZVd2QxOW8=

which appears to be a DES Extended format???

which uses a nine char salt???? Or What???

Can't get my other web app to authenticate against the
LDAPUF supplied values!

Please c c

pe te rf   ma c . co m
(minus the spaces, obviously!)
thanks!
