AuthLDAPBindPassword encryption

[Roger Paanini <rogerpaanini@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Everyone,

I am trying to usr an encrypted password for LDAP. After much research I chanced upon the link: https://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.4/mod/mod_authnz_ldap.html#authldapbindpassword

But when I try the following entry in httpd.conf, it does not seem to work:

 AuthLDAPBindPassword "exec:myprogram" 

"myprogram" simply prints the password to the std out. 

How do I debug this? Has anyone had success with this new feature? Any hints and insights are appreciated.

Thanks!
