If everything's correct it should be the same binary MD5 value but
differently encoded to be ASCII-clean. The value for userPassword is
base64-encoded after the password scheme identifier (here {MD5}). The
command-line tool md5sum generates hex-byte encoding. Note that I didn't
check whether the values you provided above are actually the same binary MD5
value. Take care of possible line-breaks or other white-space chars when
using md5sum.
You should probably consider using a decent scripting language instead of
command-line tools to generate values for userPassword though.
