pam_password controls how new passwords are hashed locally before 
updating an account's password attribute, i.e. when someone changes 
their password.

If you want the hash setting on the server to always be honored, use 
"pam_password clear".

Comments from PADL's ldap.conf:

# Do not hash the password at all; presume
# the directory server will do it, if
# necessary. This is the default.
#pam_password clear
