I'm not sure what PAM is doing here.  You can always verify that you are 
being properly restricted on password syntax by using ldapmodify or 
ldappasswd from the command line.

This entry has objectclass ldapSubEntry, which means it is hidden from 
normal searches.  Try a search filter like 
(|(objectclass=*)(objectclass=ldapSubEntry)) to see these types of 
entries + normal entries.  This is what the console does automatically, 
and you can verify this by looking at your access log.
